PART C: REGULATORY REPORTING<br />
11.12.4 Procurement Committee<br />
The Board committee was formed mainly to facilitate<br />
supply chain management requirements of the organisation<br />
considering the time bound nature of some activities.<br />
The approved terms of reference allow the committee<br />
to consider and approve procurement requests above<br />
R10 million and consider and recommend procurement<br />
requests over R20 million to the <strong>NRF</strong> Board in line with<br />
the delegation of authority framework. The committee<br />
has regular scheduled meetings, but can also convene at<br />
short notice should urgent matters require approval. The<br />
committee held 4 meetings during the 2017/18 financial<br />
year: as indicated on Table 32<br />
11.13 Remuneration of the Board<br />
The remuneration of the <strong>NRF</strong> Board is determined in line<br />
with the National Treasury guidelines. The <strong>NRF</strong> Board was<br />
categorised as level A1 for the financial year in review.<br />
Table 33 on page 128 details remuneration of the Board for<br />
the 2017/18 financial year.<br />

travelling for <strong>NRF</strong> purposes. However, all travel costs (such<br />
as airfares and car hire) are covered by the <strong>NRF</strong>. ‘Other<br />
reimbursements’ include actual costs incurred by Board<br />
members for incidental expenses such as airport parking<br />
costs, toll fees, Gautrain fares and use of personal vehicles<br />
