However, the amount spent should not be more than 10 per cent of the total sum appropriated by Parliament, unless in special circumstances where Parliament has approved a higher percentage. My Committee was informed by the National Treasury that most of the expenditures requested for in the Second Supplementary Estimates have been incurred, reason being that a bulk of them relates to pensions and public debt which forms a first charge, as we all know, on The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
