9.6 Mpumalanga The Province of Mpumalanga supported the Bill and emphasised the following: . The NCOP is urged, in future, to provide Legislatures enough time to consider Section 74 or 76 Bills, so as to ensure sufficient public participation. This timeframe is especially important in terms of the Division of Revenue Bill; . When the general budget allocation to health is determined, all relevant conditions and data should be taken into account to ensure that the budget adheres to the burden of disease; . The 15 per cent allocation in the Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG) to develop sport facilities is not applied consistently by municipalities due to the competing needs that exist in communities. There should either be specific conditions stipulated and included in the MIG to ring fence the allocation; or the 15 per cent should be taken out of the MIG and be introduced as a separate conditional grant; . Although the addition of Schedule 9 that caters for disasters declared at national level is welcomed, the definition should be broadened to provide for minor disasters that occur on a smaller scale and require intervention by provincial government or municipalities; and . It is imperative that all applicable and relevant factors be taken into consideration when allocating funding for matters relating to HIV and Aids so as to ensure that the allocated budget can provide adequately for the burden of diseases.
