With respect to monitoring and capacity, the PoKZN reported that, when the payment of property rates was devolved to the provinces, the staff from the NDPW was not shifted together with this function and that that left a gap on how the conditional grant was to be implemented as this was a new function. Furthermore, the PoKZN reported that there was no funding provided for additional capacity to implement this function. Provincial asset management staff is currently performing the function.
