1)        In respect of remuneration-

R50,00 per hour or part of an hour with a maximum of R396,00 per day for attending a meeting or where the presence of a member is required in connection with any other official function of the Board.

 

2)        In respect of subsistence-

an allowance at R73,00 for every 24 hours and R3,04 for every full hour thereafter or the actual expenses, provided such expense is in the opinion of the commissioner reasonable.

 

3)        In respect of transport-

the actual cost of public transport or R0,63 per kilometer in the case of private transport, whichever is the lesser.

 

4)        A member of the Board shall travel by the most convenient public conveyance, but if the commissioner is satisfied that the journey cannot be so undertaken, he may authorise the use of private transport against payment of a transport allowance as prescribed by regulation 6(3).

 

5)        Where a member of the Board travels by a route which results in the journey lasting longer or which involves greater travelling and subsistence allowance than was in the opinion of the commissioner necessary, he may reduce a claim for such allowance to such amount that he regards as reasonable.
