          is administering the CARA fund and transfers funds to intended organisations on behalf of the Department. An amount of R5,7 million was
          paid to NDA in the previous financial year as an administration fee in advance. To date, an amount of R1,710 million has been journalised to
          expenditure in the 2020/21 financial year and an amount of R2,635 million has been expensed for the 2021/22 financial year.

          The amount of R73,152 million relates to the payment of the Telkom Toll-Free Line used for queries relating to Social Grants. The Department
          is the Account holder. The increased cost relates to the extensive calls being received in relation to the SRD R350 application queries
          since April 2021. Processes are underway to recover the amount spent from SASSA. The recovery will be contingent upon the legal opinion
          currently awaited.
