6. 6 Financial Position - notes The financial health of the Commission is sound measured by its solvency and liquidity status. Between the previous year and 2014/2015 period, solvency has increased whilst liquidity situation is diminishing mainly because of the outlay of investment in property, plant and equipment. There is a switch between current and non-current assets – current and cash ratio at 99% and anticipated to fall in the new year. Most creditors are from non-exchange transactions - R10.2 m of the R13.4 m in total liabilities as at 31 march 2015. Net asset were at R4.8 million (2014; R3.8 m), an increase accounted for by current operating results at R968, 067 surplus.

7. 7 Notes Out-flows in ordinary course of operations were R1, 6 m in excess of cash in-flows. The inverse was true in the previous financial year. Further outflows for R4, 5 million were recorded as disbursement for f\investment in fleet in the main. The figure is materially higher than previous period (R373, 839) Net cash & cash equivalents reduced by 32% from R19.4 m at the financial year ending 31 March 2014.
