[12th November 2018]
Open Committee Meetings Monday 12th to Friday 16th November
There are three open committee meetings this week. They are all National Assembly Portfolio Committee meetings, as listed below.
The meetings will be held at Parliament in Harare and will be open to the public. Members of the public may attend the meetings as observers only, not as participants, i.e. they may observe and listen but not speak. If attending, please use the entrance to Parliament on Kwame Nkrumah Ave between 2nd and 3rd Streets. Please note that IDs must be produced.
The details given in this bulletin are based on the latest information from Parliament. But, as there are sometimes last-minute changes to the meetings schedule, persons wishing to attend should avoid disappointment by checking with the clerk of the committee that the meeting concerned is still on and open to the public. Parliament’s telephone numbers are Harare 700181 and 252940/1.
Reminder: Members of the public, including Zimbabweans in the Diaspora, can at any time send written submissions to Parliamentary committees by email addressed toclerk@parlzim.gov.zw or by letter posted to the Clerk of Parliament, P.O.
