Annual Report: Human Resource (HR) Information The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 29

2012-13 Annual Report: HR Management Vacancy Rate At the end of the 2012-13 financial year the department had 197 funded posts of which 173 were filled Vacancy rate at the end of the reporting period was 12% Reasons for the non-achievement of the 10% vacancy rate target include: Time taken to complete compulsory pre-employment screening (2 to 3 months delay in some cases) Delay in DPSA directive on implementing PSCBC Resolution 1 of 2012 related to salary levels 9-10 and 11-12 In certain high level skilled positions difficulties were experienced in recruiting appropriately skilled officials due to competiveness in the labour market Internal promotions as well staff leaving the department had an impact on the vacancy rate (11 internal promotions and 17 exits) The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 30

2012-13 Annual Report: HR Management Filling of Top Management Positions During the reporting period the department successfully filled two Deputy Director General posts The CIO position was vacant, however the post has recently been successfully filled Turn Over Rate In the 12 month period from 1 April 2012 to 31 March 2013 the department had 17 exits Turn-over rate was 12% (17 out of 143) Main reason for the exits was officials leaving due to promotions or pursuing other career opportunities The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 31

2012-13 Annual Report: HR Management Job Evaluation 104 posts in the department were job evaluated The high number is mainly due to the implementation of PSCBC Resolution 1 of 2012 (grading of jobs on salary level 9-10 and 11-12) Employment Equity The Employment Equity statistics at the end of the 2012-13 financial year were: People with Disability: 2% (4 out of 173) African: 79% (136 out of 173) Women at SMS level 44% (16 out of 36) The Department is currently focusing on recruiting more females and Africans in Senior Management Positions to ensure set targets are achieved as well as increasing the number of people with disability in the department more specifically in SMS The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 32

Reasons for budget shifts and virements All virements were done within the 8% limit for virements in terms of section 43(2) of the PFMA Savings on compensation due to: Difficulties in finding suitable candidates for some specialist positions, leading to recruitment processes taking longer than planned A number of advertised positions were filled by successful internal candidates, resulting in new vacancies Delay in implementation of Bargaining Council resolution regarding salary levels 9/10 and 11/12, which was budgeted for Some delays in obtaining pre-employment security screening results, which delayed some of the appointments Delay in implementation of HoD assessment programme (awaiting issuing of new policy by DPSA) The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 36

Reasons for budget shifts and virements continued. Under Programme 1, savings on compensation moved to ICT unit for additional software licences Under Programme 2, savings on compensation moved to goods and services to fund the 20-year review and FOSAD research project on concurrent norms and standards Some savings from Presidential Hotline (SITA and call costs lower than expected) moved to goods and services under OME branch, to fund the 20 year review and research on norms and standards for concurrent functions The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 37

Expenditure overview: overall for the year R 6 189 3.6% R 7 800 4.5% Overall Expenditure ( 000) Under-expenditure Committed but delayed Expenditure R 160 170 92.0% The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 40

Expenditure overview: explanation Department spent 92% of its overall budget by the end of the 2012/13 financial year Increase in expenditure towards the end of the financial year largely due to expenditure on IT equipment, evaluations and research projects: We were required to engage with SITA to plan our IT infrastructure requirements. These engagements were only finalised in June 2012 and the procurement of IT equipment could only start after that. This explains why our IT expenditure largely took place towards the end of the financial year Evaluation programme is still relatively new - National Evaluation Policy Framework was approved in November 2011 and the 2012/13 national evaluation plan was only approved in June 2012 this explains why expenditure on evaluations largely took place at the end of the financial year The 2013/14 evaluation plan was approved in November 2012 and preparations for implementation started at the beginning of 2013. Therefore expenditure on evaluations will be more evenly spread over the 2013/14 financial year The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 41

Expenditure overview: explanation continued DPME was requested to carry out 20 year review and norms and standards research project after the beginning of the financial year, and expenditure on these two projects has therefore largely taken place towards the end of the financial year Reasons for under-spending of R13.9 million (8% of budget): Funds committed but expenditure delayed: R7.8m (4.5%) Delays in delivery of ICT equipment and finalisation of software development: R2.7m R5.1m on 20-year review and Norms and Standards project R2.7m (1.6%) in under-expenditure on compensation of employees (reasons provided earlier) R3.4m (1.9%) savings on Hotline expenditure (SITA and call costs lower than expected) The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 42

Goods and Services R 656 0.9% R 1 500 2.1% R 3 600 5.0% Goods and Services ( 000) Under-expenditure 20-year review Norms and Standards R 66 849 92.1% Expenditure The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 43

Goods and Services Hotline expenditure: Hotline transferred to DPME from Presidency on 1 October 2011 For 2012/13 budget DPME requested additional funding for Hotline for additional call centre capacity, increased services from SITA and for calls made to toll-free number Additional call centre capacity was been put in place during 2012 and additional services are being provided by SITA Request for additional funding for 2012/13 was based on estimate from SITA and estimate of cost of toll-free number (at time of transfer, telecoms operators had not yet invoiced for toll-free number) Actual SITA costs for increased call centre operators and increased services, and actual toll-free number costs have turned out lower than estimated (resulting in saving of R2.9 million against budget) The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 44

Capital Expenditure Capital Expenditure ('000) R 2 806 18.0% R 10 079 64.7% R 1 900 12.2% R 800 5.1% Under-expenditure ICT: POA, FSD and MPAT ICT Project: Delivery delays Expenditure The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 45

Capital Expenditure DPME ICT infrastructure plan agreed with SITA in June 2012 Procurement of hardware only started in July 2012 Migration to ICT system completed by 31 March 2013. Migration to own telephone system completed by end of June 2013 R2.7m unspent on ICT projects due to: R1.9m in orders placed - delays in delivery of equipment R0.8m due to delays in finalisation of PoA, MPAT and FSD systems The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 46

Conclusions on expenditure DPME was a relatively new department Approvals for evaluation programme only obtained after start of financial year DPME has now settled into multi-year budgeting and expenditure with planning and preparations taking place the year before expenditure takes place It is now possible to start evaluation and research projects early in the financial year, which will ensure a more even spread of expenditure Corrective measures introduced to address under-expenditure: For the budget for the 2013/14 financial year, the CFO has played a more direct role in engaging with programme managers to ensure that budgets are realistic The Department has also introduced monthly budget and expenditure meetings to ensure more accurate budgeting and more rigorous expenditure monitoring in future Therefore from 2013/14 DPME expenditure is more evenly spread over the financial year (as illustrated by slides further on) The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 47

Additional financial information The Department received R950,000 in aid assistance from GIZ. R944,000 was spent on two projects related to M&E capacity building The Department did not incur any irregular expenditure in the 2012/13 financial year apart from expenditure on finance leases, automatically condoned through Treasury practise note 5 of 2006/07 Fruitless and wasteful expenditure amounting to R65,000 was incurred on travel-related cancellations and no-shows. R37,000 was condoned because it occurred as a result of unforeseeable and unavoidable circumstances and R4,000 was recovered from officials. The remainder was still under investigation at the time of the report but has since been either condoned or recovered. The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 48

Total project cost of R5.2m of which R1m was spent in 2012/13. Roll-over was not approved R6.2m total cost of 20-Year review project. Roll-over of savings due to project delays in 2012/13 was not approved Reprioritisation from Programme 3 (reduced expenditure on M&E research projects) and Programme 4 (expenditure on Hotline, HoD Assessments) was done to fund norms and standards research and 20-year Review projects under Programme 2 Capital assets: Some back-office ICT projects will be delayed to 2014/15 financial year to fund norms and standards and 20-year review projects The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 60

2014/15-2016/17 MTEF Budget The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 61

MTEF: Baseline overview - Background During the 2011 MTEC cycle the Department requested additional funding of R449 million per annum to increase capacity and to establish regional offices to enable the Department to fully deliver on its mandate National Treasury indicated that our additional funding request could not be met. The budget allocated to the Department to date is summarised below: 11/12 12/13 13/14 14/15 15/16 16/17 Allocation 96 202 174 159 192 745 202 013 210 738 223 442 Increase - 81.0% 10.7% 4.8% 4.3% 6.0% Expenditure 92 841 160 236 During the 2012 MTEC cycle the Department reduced its MTEF projections by 1%, 2% and 3% respectively in line with instructions from Cabinet for all Departments to reduce expenditure Going forward, DPME baseline increases by 4.8%, 4.3% and 6.0% respectively over the MTEF in nominal terms. The baseline therefore decreases in real terms given a projected CPI of around 5.5% and average cost of living increases of between 6% and 7% The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 62

MTEF: Priorities Funding new or expanding priorities within a budget allocation that decreases in real terms required significant re-prioritisation of funding within the Department. The following strategic decisions guided this process: Priority must be given to increasing capacity in Evaluations and to extend management performance and service delivery assessments to local government Provision must be made to rent additional office accommodation for the Department Internal audit capacity will be increased from 2014/15 Outcomes support must be expanded to include two new outcomes from 2014 A Citizen Based Monitoring programme must be established and rolled out The Department followed a zero-based budgeting approach Each sub-programme provided budget estimates based on planned APP targets over the MTEF Targets and budgets were adjusted in line with the priorities mentioned above The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 63

MTEF: Conclusion What can we Achieve, Partially Achieve and Not Achieve within current re-prioritised baseline allocation: Translate MTSF into new performance agreements and delivery agreements from 2014. Monitor progress against delivery agreements. Additional 2 outcomes Carry out evaluations of major and strategic government programmes Develop and pilot Municipal Assessment Tool (25 municipalities) and assess municipal management performance of all municipalities Monitor the performance of individual national and provincial government departments (MPAT) Monitor frontline service delivery Develop Citizen Based Monitoring programme and roll-out to all 9 provinces Manage the Presidential Hotline (handle current call levels) Promote good M&E practices in government The Presidency: Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation 67
