6. 6 SPENDING PROPOSAL IMPLEMENTATION OF WHITE PAPER It is with great concern that no additional allocation has been made for the implementation of the White Paper on Corrections in the 2006/07 financial year. The risk the Department is facing is that the establishment and the success of the identified Centres of Excellence will be negatively affected, as the costs for the increased outputs are not accommodated in the baseline allocations to the Department.

7. 7 SPENDING PROPOSAL INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY 2006 MTEC recommended R 40 m in 2007/08 and R 70 m in 2008/09 for Information, Communication Technology solutions within the JCPS Cluster. Information, communication technology solutions and services will be developed and implemented within DCS in order to ensure information driven decision making within DCS, the JCPS Cluster and the Social Sector Cluster of integrated Governance.

8. 8 SPENDING PROPOSAL FLEET MANAGEMENT DCS received no additional allocation for the implementation of the Fleet Management System. The Fleet Management System is based upon the already completed feasibility study by the Department of Transport. New legislation requirements and policies, increased the need for transportation of offenders and staff. As a result the need for more vehicles. Proper fleet management is needed (controllers, proper control mechanisms etc.) Negative impact on outputs in terms of the provision of security, needs-based corrections and developmental services to offenders.

9. 9 NEW INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS Building of 4 new generation type Correctional Centers with 12 000 bed capacity in progress.
