  26. Overview of 2014/15 Budget & MTEF Estimates

  27. Expenditure

  28. Budget for 2014/15 • The core business of Dispute Management Services and Collective Bargaining Services has been allocated 70% of the total budget, up from 66%. • The approved budget for 2014/15 is R77 million, including capital expenditure. • The Council anticipates an increase in capital expenditure, which relates to the refurbishment of the Council owned building.

  29. Relating Expenditure Trends to Strategic-Oriented Goals • The funding of the Council’s strategic outcome oriented goals has not been compromised. • The expenditure of the ELRC is closely aligned to the income generated. • The funding model is unique and challenging.

  30. Relating Expenditure Trends to Strategic-Oriented Goals (Cont.) • Accumulation of surplus funds. These accumulated reserves are adequate over the MTEF period. • Revenue increases, excluding the transfer from transformation fund and accumulated reserves, from R53.8 million in 2010/11 to R58,6 million in 2013/14, are due to an increase in interest from investments and transfers from reserves.

  31. Relating Expenditure Trends to Strategic-Oriented Goals • Expenditure increased from R50.2 million in 2010/11 to R58,6 million in 2013/14, at an average annual rate of 5,5 percent, mainly due to increase in the staff complement and the Quality Learning & Teaching Campaign in the 2013/14 financial year. • The Council projects that deficits will arise over the MTEF period, due to income remaining constant. However, the Council has sufficient reserves to cover this deficit. • It is anticipated that the levies would have to be increased to cover the deficit from the 2017/18 financial year, since the deficits are not sustainable in the long term.

  32. ELRC Organogram 2014/15

  33. Conclusion • The Council appreciates the oversight role of the Portfolio Committee, which ensures accountability for the utilisation of limited resources, employed to fulfill the strategic goals of the Council, which ultimately serves the public education sector. • Activities for the first quarter of the 2014/15 financial year demonstrates the Council’s commitment to the goals set out in the Annual Performance Plan, and displays a commitment to not only goals related to public education, but the broad governmental goals of good governance, anti-corruption and support of economic transformation programmes.
