SALGA noted that the Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP) Grant for Municipalities had been changed from a Schedule 8 grant to a Schedule 6 grant. This meant that the EPWP allocation in the current year was based on the previous year's number of jobs created. If however, a municipality created more jobs in a current year they may be disadvantaged because they may not have the necessary cash flow support. This may have the unintended consequence of a municipality targeting the same number of jobs as created in the previous year.
