A court order has given the the Gauteng Department of Social Development until 4 December to address issues with the NPO funding
Non-profit organisations are still in the dark over funding for their critical social services.
GDSD Member of the Executive Council , Faith Mazibuko, responded on Monday to a provincial legislature question posed to her by the Democratic Alliance .Out of at least 178 NPOs touched on by the GDSD’s written response earlier this week, none received what had been previously agreed upon. “The MEC’s admission underscores the validity of the DA’s concerns regarding the mishandled adjudication process that commenced in late November 2023,” stated Refiloe Nt’sekhe, DA Gauteng Shadow MEC for Social Development.
She added that GCCC calculations showed that NPO funding was reduced by R172 million in the previous financial year and that the GDSD returned R554 million from that same budget.
