63. Overview of 2013/14 Budget & MTEF Estimates 63

64. Expenditure 64

65. The core business of Dispute Resolution and Collective Bargaining Services has been allocated 66% of the total budget, up from 56%. 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. Relating Expenditure Trends to Strategic-Oriented Goals 65

66. 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 R56.5 million in 2009/10 to R65, 8 million in 2012/13, are due to an increase/decrease in interest from investments and transfers from reserves. Relating Expenditure Trends to Strategic-Oriented Goals (Cont.) 66

67. Expenditure increased from R46 million in 2009/10 to R58,4 million in 2012/13, at an average annual rate of 8,3 percent, mainly due to increase in the staff complement and depreciation in the 2012/13 financial year in anticipation of the increased capital expenditure of refurbishing the Council owned building. 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 2016/17 financial year, since the deficits are not sustainable in the long term.
