The National Treasury has instructed government departments to report on Covid-19 spend using a format that will allow data to be shared with members of the public.

This comes after President Cyril Ramaphosa issued a directive to state departments in August to submit full information regarding Covid-19 procurement.

“We have since published an interactive Covid-19 procurement data dashboard, which provides more details regarding the previously published reports,” the Treasury said in a statement. According to the Treasury, the dashboard provides information regarding the actual commodity purchased, the quantities and price per item. It enables filtering of the data per supplier across all organs of state that reported.The new interactive dashboard details all transactions related to PPE procurement.

“To ensure access to information and improve reporting, all data on the dashboard can be accessed from “We will continue to stimulate good governance through transparency in all stages of procurement,” the Treasury said.
