This has naturally led to inward migration, which places strain on social amenities as well as physical infrastructure. This is therefore the reason why now more than ever before, it is important that the Gauteng Provincial Government (GPG) and the rest of the Gauteng City Region redouble efforts \ investment in infrastructure. The theme of investing in infrastructure, both social and economic, has been a recurring one for the past few years. Economic infrastructure — incorporates Barbara Creecy the physical structures from which goods and associated services are produced MEC: Finance that enter as common inputs to many industries, and which play a large part \ communications networks as well as power, water supply and sewerage facilities commonly fall into this category. Social infrastructure — includes the facilities and equipment directed at satisfying society’s needs in terms of education, health and community services. Infrastructure spending will increase over the 2015 Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) to give expression to the Transformation, Modernisation and Re-industrialisation (TMR) agenda, while at the same time addressing the socio- economic imperatives of the day, increase spending on infrastructure to give expansion to the TMR to address the economic and social discrepancies of the Gauteng provincial economy. To this end the GPG will be spending over R38. 2 billion on infrastructure investments over the 2015 MTEF period, consisting of provincial equitable share funding and conditional grant funding. A notable increase of over R5.8 billion compared to the 2014 MTEF budget of R32.4 billion is due to the high value of infrastructure projects that would be under construction stage of the normal project life-cycle. Increase in the budget is also explained by the re-allocation of funds that were unallocated during the 2014 MTEF as a result of the introduction of the new performance based criteria \ Grants by National Government. The GPG infrastructure programme has predominantly focused on social infrastructure. This is in response to pressing societal challenges as well as addressing issues of equity. In the aftermath of the global economic slowdown, \ stimulate the economy as well as be a catalyst for job creation.
