At least 44% of the R500bn Covid-19 relief package towards health response and relief of social and economic distress had been spent by end of March.

“At the NSFAS [National Student Financial Aid Scheme], they registered R77.5bn of irregular expenditure due to not complying with the bursary regulations, so it wasn’t procurement-related.

“It’s important that we embrace a culture of compliance, disciplines of compliance and playing within the rules insofar as procurement is concerned or any other way that we engage with public finance.”
