Minister’s Statement

The Year 2018 was interesting for the Ministry to continue its quest and focus of developing Transport, Communications and Meteorological services in accordance with the Seventh National Development Plan.

During the year, the Revised National Transport Policy was approved by Cabinet and the new National Transport Master Plan was finalised. The Ministry also undertook legal reforms through presenting four (4) bills to Cabinet and all of them were approved. The Zambia Information Communications Technology Association Act was legislated. Part of the reforms, in the transport sector this time, also included the transfer of 30% bulk and heavy cargo from road to rail.

Further, progress was recorded in installation of ICT infrastructure nationwide through the Communication Towers Project Phase II. With the upgrading of the Kenneth Kaunda International Airport (KKIA) quite advanced at 77%, the construction of the Copperbelt International Airport (CIA) commenced and the Ministry transferred ten (10) Provincial and Strategic Airports to Zambia Airports Corporation Limited (ZACL) in order to ensure better management of these assets in readiness for the launch of the National Airline.

In our Parliamentary engagement, we answered various questions on the floor of the House and issued several Ministerial Statements to keep the nation abreast with developments under the Ministry. Significantly, seven (7) annual reports were tabled from our different institutions and sixteen (16) Action Taken Reports were processed.

However, the Ministry also encountered challenges including the stalled progress on modernising inland water transport that we promise to overcome in the coming year.

The major component of the budget was support to the Government Grant Aided Institutions which amounted to K458, 629, 257 while the balance of K298, 643,990 was for Personnel Emoluments and Recurrent Departmental Charges (RDCs).

The Ministry raised K837, 506,436 as Government revenue achieving 87% of the set target, which was an improvement from the previous year’s performance of 55%.

In 2018, the major programmes were in aviation, railways, communications and road safety. These included the Kenneth Kaunda International Airport (KKIA) which reached 77% overall completion, re-establishment of the National Airline where a Shareholders Agreement was signed between Zambia and Ethiopia. Further, Zambia Railways and TAZARA continued to record a positive trajectory for both passenger and cargo numbers. Furthermore, implementation of the Communication Towers project progressed well and of major significance was a reduction in road traffic accidents and fatalities.

Gratitude goes to all staff in the Ministry and Agencies/Institutions for their dedication to duty resulting in good performance during the year under review.

2.7 TRANSPORT AND COMMUNICATION

Preliminary estimates indicate that the general performance of the transport and communication sector in 2018 was positive. The number of passengers using, railway and aviation transport increased. Utilisation of information and communication technology also improved.

Road Transport

Passengers transported by registered public service motor vehicles

The number of passengers transported by registered public service vehicles in 2018 declined by 37 percent to 57,230,580 from 90,476,640 recorded in 2017. This was due to an increase in the number of pirate motor vehicles, decrease in number of trips conducted per day by some licensed operators and increase in consumption of second hand vehicles from Japan which reduced the use of public service vehicles.

Road Traffic Crashes and Fatalities in 2016, 2017 and 2018

Road traffic crashes are expressed per 10,000 population of motor vehicles for the year under review whilst fatalities are expressed as number of fatalities per 100,000 human population this is according to international best practice.

Table 11.4 shows that in 2017, a total of 30,163 road traffic crashes were recorded, when this figure is expressed as number of road traffic crashes per 10,000 motor vehicles it gives 409 compared to 392 road traffic crashes per 10,000 motor vehicles in 2018. Statistically, there was a reduction in road traffic crashes from 2017 to 2018 by 4%. Similarly, in 2017 fatalities per 100,000 human population stood at 12, in 2018 fatalities per 100,000 human population were calculated as 11 which shows a reduction in fatalities as well.

Table 11.4 shows a declining trend in road traffic crashes and fatalities; clearly indicating that road safety interventions are yielding positive results.

AVIATION

Passenger Movement and Cargo In 2018, passenger movements at the four main airports, namely Kenneth Kaunda (KK), Harry Mwaanga Nkumbula (HMN), Simon Mwansa Kapwepwe (SMK) and Mfuwe International Airports, increased by 10.5 percent to 1,931,827 from 1,748,200 recorded in 2017 (see Table 10.5). Positive growths were recorded in both domestic and international passenger movements at 22.7 percent and 7.9 percent, respectively.

The observed growth has been attributed to among other things, increased airline activities such as Rwandair; introduction of new flights between Lusaka and Kalumbila by Kafue Transport, lower Zambezi and Mfuwe by Proflight and also the increased competition among local players (Mahogany and Proflight) resulted in reduced ticket fares that attracted new passengers on the domestic front.

The volume of cargo and mail transported at the four main airports increased by 9.3 percent to 20, 860,065.20 kilograms from 19,087,286.55 kilograms recorded in 2017 (Table 10.5). KK International Airport accounted for close to 95 percent of the cargo movement mainly due to its central location, availability of longer runway for cargo freighters landing and availability of cold storage facilities.

MTC Annual Report 2018

Among the reasons for the growth is the increased importations by the mines and their suppliers.

Aircraft Movement

During the period July to December, 2018, the Corporation recorded a total Aircraft movement into the four airports of 30,440 compared to 29,567 during the same period of 2017 giving us a positive growth of 3%. This performance can be attributed to the factors indicated above. The performance in the respective airports was Kenneth Kaunda – 18,541, Simon Mwansa Kapwepwe – 4,907, Harry Mwaanga Nkumbula – 5,133 and Mfuwe – 1,859. This represents positive percentage growths of 0.1%, 3.7%, 12%, and 7.5% respectively for, Kenneth Kaunda, Simon Mwansa Kapwepwe, Harry Mwaanga Nkumbula and Mfuwe International Airports, respectively.

RAILWAY TRANSPORT

Passenger Movement

In 2018, the number of passengers transported by rail increased by 22.7 percent to 941,049 from 766,986 recorded in 2017 (See Table 10.7). Tanzania Zambia Railways (TAZARA) transported 658,968, representing 28.9 percent increase from 511,259 recorded in 2017. The ridership increased in the period under review due to operational improvements and repair of some coaches. Similarly, Zambia Railways Limited (ZRL) recorded an increase of 10.3 percent to 282,081 passengers from 255,727 recorded in 2017, mainly due to the addition of six (6) more economy coaches repaired from the old defective fleet.

Cargo Movement Cargo transported by rail increased by 16.3 percent to 1,068,255 Mt in 2018 from 918,407 Mt recorded in 2017, largely due to growth recorded by ZRL (See Table xxx). The 23.9 percent growth recorded by ZRL was due to the response by the market to Statutory Instrument No. 7 of 2018 and an increase in traffic of commodities such as Sulphur, Coal and Copper cathodes.

On the other hand, TAZARA recorded a decline of 8.4 percent to 197, 344 Mt from 215, 490 Mt registered in 2017 mainly due to inadequate working capital

Maritime and Inland Waterways

In 2018, the number of passengers transported by water through Mpulungu Port Harbour increased by 1.5 percent to 1,277 from 1,258 passengers recorded in 2017.

During the period under review, the volume of cargo handled at the Harbour declined by 4.4 percent to 165,590.84 Mt from 173,180.15 recorded in 2017 due to significant reduction in Zambian exports of maize and cement (See Table 11.8).

Mobile Telephone Subscription 41

MTC Annual Report 2018

In 2018, the mobile subscriber base grew by 15.1 percent to 15,470,270 from 13,438,539 subscriptions recorded in 2017 (See Table xxx). The growth represents an improvement in penetration rates from 81.9 percent recorded in 2017 to 91.6 percent in 2018 due to heightened competition among the operators. In addition, the emergence of machine to machine (M2M) services such as point of sale and other data-based devices that utilise sim cards equally spurred growth in penetration.

In terms of market share, MTN Zambia Limited and Airtel Zambia Limited continued to have dominance over Zamtel, with 45.4 percent and 38.1 percent respectively. Zamtel maintained the least market share at mobile subscribers of 16.5 percent. Notwithstanding, Zamtel recorded its highest market share since 2014. This is reflective of an evolving positive participation of Zamtel in the competition landscape for mobile telecommunication services.

Mobile Traffic Volume

In 2018, the total domestic incoming calls increased by 25.9 percent to 2.0 billion minutes from 1.6 billion minutes recorded in 2017. Similarly, outgoing calls increased by 40.2 percent to 14.0 billion minutes from 9.9 billion minutes in 2017. The increment in domestic traffic could partly be explained by the heighted volume based bundled price offers on the market that have received wide adoption.

Further, International incoming traffic declined by 39.5 percent to 37.4 billion minutes from 61.8 billion minutes recorded in 2017. Outgoing international calls similarly declined by 7.5 percent to 39.9 billion minutes from 43.2 billion minutes (See Table 10.11). The decline was partly attributed to the increasing adoption of internet-based applications like WhatsApp, Skype and Viber to make international voice calls. In addition, adverse practices such as SIM boxing, a consequence of least cost routing could also explain the decline in international incoming traffic.

Internet Service Provision

During 2018, access to internet services in the country increased to 9.9 million users from 7.8 million, reflecting an increase in penetration rate to 58.4 from 47.3 percent registered in 2017 (see Table 10.12). This was attributed to increased investment among providers leading to extensive coverage and the increased adoption of emerging technologies such as 4G/LTE. Further, the increased roll out of networked devices such as point of sale machines has in part influenced the growth of mobile internet uptake.

Chapter 12: Management of Ministerial Programmes

Implementation of the programmes in the Ministry was under the direct supervision of the Permanent Secretary. To ensure efficiency in the implementation of programmes/activities, each Department is overseen by a Director who is responsible to ensure that programmes and activities are executed according to the mandated portfolio functions.

The Permanent Secretary, Directors as well as the Assistant Directors constitute the Senior Management Team.

To ensure all-inclusive implementation of programmes/activities, the Ministry undertook some of the functions under its mandate through Statutory Agencies.

Chapter 13: Challenges During the year under review, the Ministry had several challenges outlined as follows;

13.1 Inadequate release of funds

Erratic release of budgeted funds resulted in prolonged execution of programmes and activities.

13.2 Failure to procure projects under the Public Private Partnership (PPP) framework

The Ministry experienced some challenges in attracting PPP investors in the railway sub-sector due to the long term investment outlook for the sub-sector.

13.3 Inappropriate Staffing Levels

The Ministry operated with limited staff as some positions were still frozen especially in the Maritime Department.

13.4 Institutional and Human Resource Capacity

Lack of adequate technical capacity contributed to lower than expected performance in some programmes/activities. There was a notable increase in the

MTC Annual Report 2018 number of programmes/activities that required capacity building for their effective implementation.

13.5 Prolonged Lead-time for Procurement of Goods and Services Stringent procedures hamper implementation of programmes and cause unnecessary delays as well as increasing the cost of doing business.

MTC Annual Report 2018

Chapter 14: Recommendations

14: 1 Budgetary Releases

The Ministry of Finance should ensure that resources for Capital Projects are disbursed consistently to avoid delays in project completion and increase in the cost of doing business.

14:2 Government Communications Flight Services Government should review operations of the Government Communications Flight Unit for its future existence.

14:3 Ministerial Structures The Ministry structure should be reviewed in line with the new mandate.

Chapter 15: Conclusion

The implementation of the Ministry’s programmes and activities in 2017 were fairly on target, despite the challenges that were encountered. The Ministry continued to implement programmes, formulate and administer policies in communications, transport and meteorological sectors in accordance with the National Development Plans.
