Information such as; NPO funding/to show transparency in funding allocations to NPOs in the Sub Districts. And non compliance of NPOs which will lead to de-register of those organizations which are not complying with the NPO Act71 of 1997.
The Department is expected to provide information on funding so that citizens must know and have insight about financial status of the department that is allocated to them, Batho Pele Principle.
It has also been observed that some of the NPOs submit their claims very late and with signatures of board members who have long left the organization. NPOs are encouraged to send their claims to the district as the mandate of paying NPOs is given to the district to execute.
