Funding – only R5m per annum allocated under MTEF
Treasury argues that UYF should utilise cash on hand – however most is committed to projects.
Mismatch between the National Budget and State of Nation Address: Support to Unemployed Youth who are out of school. R125
billion on education focuses on Schools, Further & Higher Education. Bulk of beneficiaries under National Skills Development Learnerships affects Section 18(1) – employed youth
More allocation to youth in prison than to the Unemployed Youth Cohort.
It is envisaged that with resources available the UYF will only reach 40%-50% of planned activities.
Management of youth expectations in election year.
