This annexure provides the revised frameworks for grants set out in Part A of Schedules 4, 5 and 6 of the 2017 Division of Revenue Amendment Bill. The following are key areas considered for each grant.

Strategic goal and purpose of the grant |

Outcome statements and outputs of the grant |

Priority outcome(s) of government that the grant primarily contributes to |
| • |
Conditions of the grant (additional to what is required in the Bill) |

Responsibilities of transferring national department and receiving provinces |

The attached frameworks are not part of the Division of Revenue Amendment Bill, but are published in order to provide more information on the grants to parliament, legislatures, municipal councils, officials in all three spheres of government and the public. Once the 2017 Division of Revenue Amendment Bill is enacted, the frameworks will be gazetted.
The financial statements and annual reports for 2017/18 will report against the Division of Revenue Act, Division of Revenue Amendment Act and their schedules, and the grant frameworks as gazetted in terms of the Act. Such reports must cover both financial and non-financial performance, focusing on the outputs achieved.
