Department of Sport, Arts and CultureNorthern CapeCapital Expenditure onMayibuye Centre, Galeshewe, Kimberley2003/04 – 2005/06
Mayibuye Centre Reasons for underspending 2003/2004: (R6,493k) The project ran into unexpected geological problems. The top layer of soil had to be removed (3-4m) and replaced by a more geologically stable substance. This resulted in the project being delayed by some time. An amount of R3,734,000 was approved as a rollover to 2004/2005 2004/2005: (R3,733k) There were delays in the awarding of the construction tender. The contract to construct the facility was awarded to Kopanya Joint Venture in September 2004. Problems were then experienced in securing guarantees for the contract. These were eventually secured and construction commenced in the last quarter of 2004/2005. Rollover of the unspent amount of R3,733,000 was requested and approved.
R’000 Budget Projections Variance Over/(Under) Mayibuye Centre 10,000 13,956 3,956 • Reasons for projected shortfall: • The projected shortfall at the end of the project of R3,956,000 is as a result of an amount of R10,771,000 having been suspended from the Department's 2004/2005 budget as per an Executive Council Resolution. • R6,200,000 of the suspended amount was from the R10,000,000 allocated to the Mayibuye Multi-Purpose Centre. From the main appropriation R3,800,000 was available. • With the approved rollover of R3,734,00 from 2003/2004 the final appropriation for 2004/2005 was R7,534,000. A shortfall of R2,466,000. • The additional shortfall of R1,490,000 is escalation costs and geological stabilisation of site.
