There is a significant improvement from the allocation of the previous year. This will allow us to execute more plans and our various development programmes, particularly those that require our urgent attention,\u201d said Mwiya.<\/p>\n<p>In total, the sport, youth, and national service ministry was allocated N$473.2 million for the 2023\/24 financial year, which it will distribute amongst its three directorates: sport, youth, and national service.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the allocated N$473.2 million is also a decent increase from the N$330.9 million it got in the last financial circle.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt the moment, I cannot tell you which programmes we will prioritise, but once we convene our annual meetings with all the relevant stakeholders and make the final decisions, I will then be able to provide you with a concrete direction. Only then will I be able to disclose the administration fee each federation will receive in this financial year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor years we have been underfunded but the money will now come in handy with some of the activities that we want to execute. We are hopeful that this year we will be able to assist federations with their administration fees if that budget is approved by the board,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, in her budget motivation speech, line minister Agnes Tjongarero said the NSC was allocated an increased N$17.5 million to help fast-track and implement its activities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor the last four years, NSC had been underfunded and found it challenging to execute its mandate. With the increase for the 2023\/24 financial year, we trust that the commission will now implement a number of programmes and projects it had to put on hold due to a lack of funding in the past,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>The NSC has not fulfilled its mandate of supporting sports federations with their administration fees for the past years due to a lack of funds.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/namibia\">Namibia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Namibia.
