An article in yesterday’s The Times has reports that “corruption and incompetence” are standing in the way of efficiently spending HIV grants
Mpumalanga province has been implicated in the under spending of money for HIV grants, having spent only R81-million of its budget which amounts to a whopping R134-million.
The parliament’s Select Committee on Appropriations heard that three provincial health departments are guilty of under spending on various state projects.
The matter was brought up during the performance review hearings of provincial health departments held yesterday.
Forensic pathology and hospital revitalization are also reported to have been affected by under spending.
