This programme manages international exchange programmes, supports travel arrangements for sports people, and encourages the staging of major sports events in South Africa and the promotion of sports tourism. This programme would manage five international exchange programmes during 2012/13, would host 12 sporting events and promote South Africa through two major international sports events. Key sub programmes include the International Liaison and Major events sub programme. Expenditure for this programme decreases from R40, 5 million in 2011/12 to R13, 6 million in 2014/15. The declining budget for this programme was due to the rollover of R16, 7 million received in 2011/12 for value added tax refunds on 2010 FIFA World Cup tickets and savings of R3, 8 million in spending on goods and services. This programme was meant to negotiate government-government agreements and managed the ensuing programmes of cooperation. Another increase was in International Liaison and Events whose budget increased from R 14, 504 in 2010/11 to R 40, 528 in 2011/12.
