  10. D. Comments on ENE 2013/14 Per Programme Programme 1: Administration The bulk of spending goes towards compensation of employees and goods and services, while the programme’s two largest subprogrammes are Office Accommodation and Corporate Services. Over the medium term, expenditure on compensation of employees is expected to increase due to additional allocations for improved conditions of service, while expenditure on goods and services, specifically operating leases and property payments, is expected to increase mainly because of additional allocations for escalating accommodation charges and municipal services. The significant increase in expenditure on travel and subsistence in 2013/14 provides for above average increases in transport costs, while the increase in expenditure on food and food supplies from 2013/14 provides for the planned self-provision of food services in centres where it is currently outsourced. Expenditure in the Corporate Services subprogramme is expected to increase over the medium term to provide for improved conditions of service and training for personnel.

  11. D. Comments on ENE Per Programme Programme 1: Administration As part of the Cabinet approved budget reductions, the department will reduce spending by R55.2 million in 2013/14, R220.4 million in 2014/15 and R216 million in 2015/16. These reductions will be effected on compensation of employees and non-essential goods and services items such as assets whose value is below the capitalisation threshold, consumables, stationery and printing, and machinery and equipment.

  12. D. Comments on ENE Per Programme The bulk of spending in this programme goes towards compensation of employees, mainly due to the labour intensive nature of the Security Operations subprogramme. Growth in expenditure in the Facilities subprogramme between 2012/13 and 2015/16 provides for improved security in correctional centres and operational costs for the Brandvlei, Ceres and Van Rhynsdorp correctional centres, which are set to open in 2012/13. Over the same period, the increase in expenditure on the Offender Management subprogramme will provide for improved work of case management committees. Programme 2: Incarceration

  13. D . Comments on ENE Per Programme (Continued) Programme 3: Rehabilitation The bulk of spending in this programme goes towards compensation of employees, due to the labour intensive nature of its largest subprogramme, Offender Development. Spending on compensation of employees over the seven-year period increases, mainly due to the filling of vacant posts and additional funding for the implementation of the OSD for correctional officials, educators and artisans, and improved conditions of service as required by resolution 1 of 2007 of the PSCBC.

  14. D . Comments on ENE Per Programme (Continued) The significant increase in expenditure in the Psychological, Social and Spiritual Services subprogramme from 2012/13 to 2015/16 was due to an increase in the number of offenders using the services this subprogramme offers and the intensification of awareness programmes at correctional centres. Expenditure on goods and services over the medium term to provide for the purchase of additional material, supplies, transport costs and fuel for processing items and products in departmental production workshops and agricultural activities. Payments for capital assets also increased as a result of replacing equipment in production workshops countrywide. Programme 3: Rehabilitation

  15. D. Comments on ENE Per Programme (Continued) The bulk of spending in the programme goes towards goods and services, and its two largest subprogrammes are Nutritional Services and Health Services. The largest goods and services items are agency and support services, and food and food supplies inventory for outsourced catering services. As part of the Cabinet approved budget reductions, the department will reduce spending by R49.8 million in 2013/14, R62.2 million in 2014/15 and R64.6 million in 2015/16. The reductions will be effected in spending on goods and services items such as inventories, and agency and support services. A large part of these reductions are as a result of savings realised from the 2012 special remission of sentences, which reduced the number of offenders in custody. Programme 4: Care

  16. D. Comments on ENE Per Programme (Continued) The bulk of this programme’s spending goes towards compensation of employees due to the labour intensive nature of its largest subprogramme, Supervision. The increase in expenditure in this subprogramme over the seven-year period is due to additional funding for the implementation of OSD for correctional officers and improved conditions of service as required by resolution 1 of 2007 of the PSCBC. The increase in expenditure in the Community Reintegration subprogramme over the medium term provides for an expected increase in the number of persons under parole and correctional supervision and the implementation of integration programmes, such as the halfway house project to reintegrate released offenders into society. Programme 5: Social Reintegration
