Abstract

For many countries throughout the world, unemployment, poverty, and inequality are the biggest problems. These also apply to South Africa. In essence, local economic development (LED) is an ongoing procedure that is spearheaded by local stakeholders, particularly the local government, and built upon local efforts to stimulate the local economy and provide employment in a given area. Using the Polokwane municipality as a case study, the study aims to examine the contribution of local economic development in the reduction of unemployment in South Africa. The research also aims to ascertain how much Polokwane Municipality's local economic development organizations aid to the reduction of poverty. To obtain a thorough understanding of the subject matter, the study will employ a qualitative research approach and involve participants from various municipal levels who are involved in local economic development, such as agencies, municipal officials, and beneficiaries. The study followed a qualitative research methodology, which is a type of social science research that collects and works with non-numerical data and that seeks to interpret meaning from these data that help us understand social life through the study of targeted populations or places, and it employed theme analysis to find, arrange, and present themes and their sub-themes surfaced from study interviews. The research produced suggestions for using local economic development to reduce poverty and provide jobs.

Abstract

Compliance with the Public Finance Management Act is essential for the whole South African government. Nevertheless, the South African Auditor General has found non-compliance since most ministries within the provincial administration of Limpopo still violate the PFMA. Some of the non-compliance may lead to serious misstatements and, eventually, an AGSA qualified audit opinion. Noncompliance has a negative impact on the general population since it can occasionally lead to compromises in the quality of services provided by government bodies. The study assessed how personnel in departments of the province of Limpopo contributed to PFMA non-compliance. The study used an interview guide to gather the primary data and adhered to the qualitative research methodology. Purposive sampling was used to choose study participants based on their expertise with PFMA compliance across the province of Limpopo's various departments. Future PFMA compliance may be enhanced by the practical recommendations and ideas that the study generated. The study's consequences included identifying the problems that impact compliance in the public sector and providing recommendations for how to resolve them. Other aspects of the South African government are also impacted by the study's conclusions, such as the enhancement of PFMA compliance in the Limpopo public service administration.
