REASONS FOR UNDERSPENDING 2010 / 2011

Golden Oldies , Regional Indigenous Games could not be facilitated in the first quarter due to the World Cup and it was moved to the second and third quarter.

Slow submission of documentation from service providers which lead to the delay in the processing of payment.

Remedial actionsMore focus has now been dedicated to activities

of mass participation since FIFA World Cup is over.

Programmes that could not be implemented in the first quarter will be fast tracked in the second quarter.

Fast track payment of service providers for services that have been rendered.
