The Department of Military Veterans will be getting more money over the next three years to carry out its mandate of supporting military veterans and their dependents. This will see houses built, bursaries awarded and memorials erected.
The Department of Military Veterans has been allocated R701 million in 2020/21 and R743 million in 2021/22, up from R662 million for 2019/20, according to February’s Estimates of National Expenditure (ENEs). Over the medium term, the Department of Military Veterans will focus on providing housing, health care and education, training and skills development programmes to veterans and their dependants.
