Ngcobo, Mr SL to ask the Minister of Basic Education to ask the Minister of Basic Education
Whether, considering that her department promised a number of schools in Limpopo including the Ndzalama Primary School, Dingamanzi Primary School, Chameti Secondary School and Bvuma Primary School infrastructure projects years before the COVID-19 lockdown, and in some cases allocated funds for delivery of the specified projects, thereafter infrastructure projects were suspended indefinitely and school communities continued to suffer the consequences, her department will provide an audit of all schools in Limpopo and other provinces at which it promised infrastructure projects and/or started and subsequently suspended such projects indefinitely; if not, why not; if so, what are the (a) relevant details of funds allocated to unfinished projects and (b) reasons for the indefinite suspension of the projects?
Reply:
The question asked by the Hon Member is asking for information that is in the purview of the MEC for Education in Limpopo Department of Education, not the Hon Minister of Basic Education. The Hon Member is therefore advised to refer the question to the respective province.
