Department: Transport 7 PAYMENT SUMMARY Key assumptions Assumptions have been determined, which establish the basic foundation for the crafting of this budget. These assumptions provided a framework to the department for setting priorities, determining service levels and allocating limited financial resources. The following assumptions were taken into consideration when this budget was formulated: %uf0b7 The inflation rate assumption for the 2025 MTEF is 4.5 per cent for each of the three financial years: 2025/26, 2026/27, and 2027/28. %uf0b7 A reprioritisation of funds has been undertaken to ensure that core service delivery areas are adequately provided for. %uf0b7 Stringent cost containment measures have been implemented to optimise resource allocation. %uf0b7 The own revenue budget has taken into account the projected growth in the Eastern Cape's motor vehicle population, as well as associated tariff adjustments.
