The Democratic Alliance has called for
urgent action for the Limpopo Provincial government.
This is after the government has failed to
spend its allocated Human Settlements Development grant of R500 million for the
2013/2014 financial year.
DA MP of Human Settlements Makashule Gana
said if the budget was spent more than 9 000 homes could have been
built.
Gana said this money could have been spent
on completing human settlements projects in Sekhukhune District Municipality Lebogang Township
Gana said according to our calculations,
more than 9000 homes could have been built.
Gana said It is shocking that the
department promised to build 12 500 houses by the end of the 2013/14 financial
year and only managed to build 1500 houses of the set target.
Gana said at the same time it has handed a
billion back to treasury in unspent money.
“It is high time that Minister Sisulu takes
control and resolves this issue in the provincial department once and for all Gana
added.
