Sharif, Ms NK to ask the Minister in The Presidency for Women, Youth andPersons with Disabilities

Whether, with reference to the R1,6 billion that was allocated to the Commission for Gender Equality to report on the implementation of the Government’s Emergency Response Action Plan on Gender Based Violence and Femicide (GBVF) in 2019, her department will furnish Ms N K Sharif with (a) a breakdown of the total amount of the R1,6 billion that has been spent, (b) a detailed breakdown of line items of the R1,6 million that has been spent, including a list of expenditure by her department and (c) the total amount of the R1,6 billion that is left over and where the money is located; if not, why not; if so, what monitoring and evaluation mechanisms has her department used to ensure that the money has been spent on GBVF?

Reply:

The ERAP was resourced through a reprioritization exercise by relevant government departments to the tune of R1,6 Billion. The departments and entities identified approximately R1,6 billion on baseline spending for 2019/20 relevant to the emergency action plan. This was higher than the R1,1 Billion costing for the ERAP. Below is a table of the baseline allocations breakdown across the 5 pillars of the ERAP:
