Parliamentary Committee Meetings: Week Ending 12th September
No Meetings on Monday 8th September
All Committee business on Monday has been suspended to allow all members of Parliament to attend a Briefing-Meeting on Members of Parliament Capacity Building. The purpose of the meeting is to provide members of Parliament with an opportunity to be exposed to the proposed current capacity building programmes to be availed by tertiary institutions in order to enhance their “professional and academic development, vis-a vis their oversight, representative and law making roles”.
Reminder on Emailing Parliament
Members of the public, including Zimbabweans in the Diaspora, can send written submissions to committees by email addressed to clerk@parlzim.gov.zw
Meetings Open to the Public 9th to 11th September
Members of the public may attend these open meetings, but as observers only, not as participants, i.e. they may listen but not speak. The meetings are at Parliament in Harare. If attending, please use the entrance on Kwame Nkrumah Ave between 2nd and 3rd Streets. Please note that IDs must be produced.
Please note While the following details are based on the latest information received from Parliament, there are sometimes unavoidable last-minute changes to the meetings schedule.
