1. It has been estimated that the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) will require around R1,7 billion of funding to be able to respond to the State Capture cases, and develop the required capacity needed to address the growing complexity of challenges facing the NPA. National Treasury allocated a total of R1.3 billion over the MTEF period towards the capacitation of the NPA to deal with State Capture and complex corruption as well as related matters. A total of R28,5 million support of donations in kind were raised from non-profits and business which were also used for capacitation project in the NPA.
2. The NPA included, in the Memorandum of Understanding with Business Leadership South Africa (BLSA), a pre-condition for vetting of resources offered from all private sector partners. Where BLSA is aware of potential conflict with the donor, such donors are not referred to the NPA. We can confirm that through this partnership and the NPA vetting process, no donor was red flagged and no protocols on donations were violated.
