Clarke, Ms M to ask the Minister of Public Service and Administration

What (a) total number of (i) national and (ii) provincial government officials received payment for capped leave days in the past two financial years, (b) total number of days was the payment for in respect of each individual and (c) was the total amount that was paid out?

Reply:

The response to the questions above is depicted in the table below. Please note that on the payment system there are no distinctions between payments of capped leave and unused leave. Consequently, the DPSA cannot report on capped leave specifically. This is a shortcoming that I have already addressed with my colleague the Minister of Finance.
