Equal Education welcomes the tabling of the 2016/17 Medium Term Budget Policy Statement (MTBPS) by Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan. We particularly welcome the additional R143 million given to the Department of Basic Education (DBE), and the swift action taken to ensure that learners in Vuwani do not suffer academically due to the protest action earlier
The DBE and national Treasury presented their 2015/16 fourth quarter results and 2016/17 first quarter results to the Portfolio Committee on Basic Education and the Standing Committee on Appropriations respectively on 23 August 2016. These results reveal that there has once again been severe underspending of the ASIDI grant, despite the first Norms and Standards
