However, the grant increased by 3.6 per cent from the revised estimate of R1.518 billion to R1.572 billion in the 2025/26 financial year. The EPWP grant has decreased from R2.777 million in 2021/22 to a revised estimate of R2.384 million in 2024/25 and in 2025/26 it has increased by 44.6 per cent to R3.447 million.
