The Mpumalanga Provincial Legislature passed the second Adjustments Appropriations Bill on Thursday, 20 March 2025.
The endorsement of this Bill is a necessary step that provides legal authorisation for changes in the provincial spending plans for the year ending 31 March 2025.
The Public Finance Management Act determines that funds received must be promptly deposited into the Provincial Revenue Fund. Furthermore, funds may only be withdrawn from the revenue fund in terms of appropriation legislation for use by departments.
The second adjustments bill added R250 million, earmarked for the Department of Human Settlements, to the 2024/25 provincial fiscal framework. The bill also authorizes essential virements within the budget allocations of specific departments, allowing for the reallocation of funds to meet evolving needs.
Issued by the Mpumalanga Provincial Treasury
