The PoKZN reported that the Lower Umfolozi Hospital project led the PoKZN to under-spend by R52 million because there were tender procurement delays by the provincial department of Public Works. Furthermore, the New Mother and Child Hospital budgeted for R365 million had been delayed for 16 months due to the inability by the provincial department of Public Works to finalise tender processes timeously. The PoKZN said it did not have monitoring capacity to detect inaccuracies with tender documents.
