21 November 2023 - NW3847
Graham, Ms SJ to ask the Minister in The Presidency for Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation
With regard to the role of her Office to monitor the implementation of the District Development Model (DDM), what (a) internal organisational restructuring has her Office undertaken in order to provide support for the DDM in line with its mandate and (b) additional costs have been incurred that can be directly attributed to the DDM function in her Office? [
Reply:
(a) The DPME did not perform any internal organisational restructuring to support the DDM but we did however allocate the support functions to existing posts. The reduction of the Compensation of Employees budget in the last few years due to re-prioritisation in 2019 and this financial year also did not provide scope to restructure the DPME.
(b) No additional costs were incurred as the functions were performed within the existing budget.
