House Chairperson, the reply to Question
278 is as follows. The award was made to a consortium of six universities namely, University of Witwatersrand, Sefako Makgatho Health Sciences University, University of Fort Hare, University of Pretoria, Nelson Mandela University and the University of the Free State since they are called the Free State Higher Education Consortium.
The service level agreement with the Free State Higher Education Consortium is an activity based reimbursement where the department will request a specific service from the Free State Higher Education Consortium. The service provider will indicate the price for the service. If the department is in agreement then the service will be requested, delivered, then reimbursed. Thank you.
