Effect of Programme/Subprogramme Output Achievement on ENE Vote 19 Purpose, Objectives and
Measures.
The various levels of achievements of the Output of the Military Health Programme has ensured that the
Military Health Support Programme could still provide prepared and supported health capabilities and services
for the defence and protection of South Africa as was required. The SAMHS remains committed to the full
execution of its purpose and objectives, in spite of challenges with regard to the recruitment and retention of
healthcare practitioners and the replacement of obsolete equipment.
