# The Public Servants Association is outraged after the Gauteng Provincial Government failed to spend 1.8-billion-rand of its 2023/24 budget. The PSA says this is a betrayal of public trust, especially while hospitals face shortages, schools are overcrowded, and infrastructure decays. The union demands answers from the Finance MEC Lebogang Maile, and calls for an urgent inquiry and consequence management. The association insists every unspent rand is a lost opportunity to serve the people. It warns that future budgets must prioritise frontline services.
