During the MTEF process the department requested an amount of R486 646 million over the three year period, which included the normal baseline inflationary increase as well as additional funding for projects. In December 2007 National Treasury allocated an amount of R476 216 million, a deficit of R10 430 million. The allocation for the first year being in deficit of R16 048 million which meant that projects had to be re-prioritised to the outer years.
However, in January 2008 National Treasury advised the department that the allocation had been revised to include further inflationary projections. The allocation was increased from R475 916 million to R517 544 million, a total amount of R41 628 million, comprised of R2 817 million for personnel and R38 811 million for non-personnel components of the vote budget by National Treasury to mitigate inflationary pressures. If inflation outcomes are above projections, it will be incumbent on the department to absorb additional costs within the baseline.

PROGRAMME 2
ENERGY & BROADBAND ENTERPRISES
The slight increase in the operational expenditure in this programme over the MTEF period is mainly due to projects in the sector commencing in 2009/10.
Over the MTEF period, a total of R727 million has been allocated for Broadband Infraco and R3.5 billion for the PBMR. However, overall expenditure in this programme decreases due to the decline of transfer payments to the SOE. In his budget speech the Minister of Finance indicated that an amount of R60 billion has been set aside in a contingency fund for Eskom over the next 5 years. R20 billion of which is the anticipated requirement over the MTEF. The department will advise the Committee as soon as this allocation has been clarified by National Treasury.
The functions and funds in the Mining sub-programme (Alexkor) which previously resided in this programme, has been moved to Programme 3 : Legal, Governance, Risk and Transactions.

Funding requested from and allocated by National Treasury for State owned Enterprises – Broadband Infraco
In the 2008 MTEF the department requested an amount of R2 095 billion over the period which was in respect of the national long distance network and the undersea cable.
An amount of R727 million was allocated over the period in respect of the State’s contribution. A significant equity contribution is critical if the substantial decrease in broadband costs targeted are to be achieved.
The further funds requested, mainly for purposes of investing and constructing a State initiated undersea cable, were not approved by National Treasury. The National Treasury raised major concerns about the extent of Private Sector Participation (PSP) in the cable. There will be significant PSP as will be demonstrated by the Infraco team.

PROGRAMME 3LEGAL, GOVERNANCE, RISK AND TRANSACTIONS
Operational expenditure in this programme increases in 2008/09, as a result of additional funding for the legal costs for the Alexkor and Safcol transactions, but remains stable for the following two years. The sub-programme Transactions was created specifically for this purpose. At the same time the transfer payment to Alexkor was shifted from Programme 2 to Programme 3 for oversight of the implementation of the Richtersveld settlement, the final payment being in 2009/10. The historical figures between the Programmes were adjusted accordingly.

PROGRAMME 4
MANUFACTURING ENTERPRISES
There is no significant increase in the operational budget for this Programme. The substantial decrease reflected over the period is due to Denel having received a transfer payment amounting to R 1.155 billion in 2007/08, with no further transfers allocated over the MTEF period.

Funding requested from and allocated by National Treasury for State owned Enterprises – Denel
In the 2008 MTEF the department requested an amount of R410 million to fund Denel’s consolidation costs at ORTIA (R241 million) and interest costs for the Domestic Medium Term Note (DMTN) (R169 million) over the MTEF period.
This request was not approved and National Treasury did not give any reasons for this in the MTEF allocation letter.
This is of grave concern given the interest cost associated with Denel’s DMTN borrowing programme which commences at the beginning of 2008/09.

PROGRAMME 5
TRANSPORT ENTERPRISES
Operational expenditure increases substantially in 2008/09 and thereafter remains stable, as the department will be retaining specialist technical expertise that was previously funded by the Department for International Development (DFID), under the Support for the Restructuring of Public Enterprises in South Africa (SPRESA) programme as well as initial funding received from the SOE for the Pipeline project in the Joint Project Facility which has shifted to this programme. The National Corridor Performance Management project also commences in this period. The slight decrease in the budget in 2008/09 is attributed to a reduction in the amount allocated for transfer payments. In 2007/08 an amount of R 744.4 million was allocated to South African Airways (SAA), whereas an amount of R585 million is allocated for South African Express Airways (SAX) in 2008/09. The long term capitalisation of SAA will be resolved over this financial year.
