Report of the Committee on Government Assurances for the First Session of the Tenth National Assembly Appointed on 8Th November, 2006 REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON GOVERNMENT ASSURANCES FOR THE FIRST SESSION OF THE TENTH NATIONAL ASSEMBLY APPOINTED ON 8TH NOVEMBER, 2006 Consisting of: Mr R Muntanga, MP (Chairperson); Mr S Katuka, MP; Mr J B Chongo, MP; Mr S Chitonge, MP; Ms E M Imbwae, MP; Mr R S Mwapela, MP; Mr L P M’sichili and Mr V M Mooya, MP. THE HONOURABLE MR SPEAKER NATIONAL ASSEMBLY LUSAKA Sir Your Committee have the honour to present their Report for the First Session of the Tenth National Assembly. FUNCTIONS OF THE COMMITTEE 2. Under the Standing Orders of the House, your Committee are mandated to scrutinise all assurances and undertakings made by Cabinet Ministers and Deputy Ministers on the floor of the House with the objective of ensuring that these are implemented. As your Committee is a General Purposes Committee, their mandate is not confined to any specific ministry as the issues that they consider are applicable to all ministries depending on situations and the issues involved. PROCEDURE OF THE COMMITTEE 3. Your Committee examined all contributions made by Cabinet Ministers and Deputy Ministers as recorded in the Daily Parliamentary Debates and extracted all statements which, in their view, amounted to assurances. These were then referred to the Government ministries concerned to find out the actions taken to implement the assurances. Upon receipt of submissions from the ministries and government departments on the outstanding assurances, your Committee then invited the respective Permanent Secretaries and Chief Executives to appear before them and give updates on the implementation of the assurances under their respective portfolios. MEETINGS OF THE COMMITTEE 4. Your Committee held twenty three meetings during the period under review. Your Committee’s Report deals with the consideration of outstanding and new assurances. TOURS OF THE COMMITTEE 5. In fulfillment of their programme of work, your Committee also undertook tours to insepct some projects which were reported to be on-going and which had been pending for long periods. 1 PART I CONSIDERATION OF ASSURANCES MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS 02/88 - Floating Beacons on Luapula River and Lake Mweru On 28th January, 1988, the Right Honourable Prime Minister assured the House as follows: “Mr Speaker, what the Honourable Member for Nchelenge is raising is valid. We will look into the problem.” Your previous Committee were unhappy and disappointed with the same responses year after year and resolved to await a progress report on the matter. Further, the previous Committee (2006) observed that there was need to review the transfer of the assurance from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the Ministry of Works and Supply and the Ministry of Lands, because the Ministry of Foreign Affairs had no role to play in the physical demarcation of the boundary, but had a bearing on international relations, and recommended that the assurance be transferred from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the Ministries of Works and Supply and Lands, respectively, and requested a progress report on the matter. It was reported in the Action Taken Report that the boundary between Zambia and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) originated from the Treaty signed at Brussels on 12th May, 1894, between Great Britain and His Majesty King Leopold II of Belgium on behalf of Congo. The total distance of the boundary is approximately 2, 140km from the Angolan frontier to Lake Tanganyika. While the boundary from Angola frontier to Mukuku Bridge, Main Beacon No. XXVIII, was demarcated and physically defined by concrete pillars; the remainder of the stretch up to Lake Tanganyika, covering a distance of approximately 905km, was not marked on the ground. In recognition of the unmarked part of the border problem between Zambia and the Democratic Republic Congo, the former Presidents Kaunda and Mobutu held extensive consultations on the matter. Arising from those consultations, the two Presidents agreed to appoint a Special Joint Committee of Experts in 1982. They also agreed on the following terms of reference for the Committee: (a) to interpret the Treaty of 12th May, 1894 to the benefit of the two countries; (b) to study the course of the boundary in any area where it may be necessary and make proposals for the approval of the two Governments; and (c) to cause demarcation of the boundary, if need be, through construction of boundary beacons, which will be described in a protocol to be submitted to the two Governments for ratification. So far, terms of reference (a) and (b) have been fulfilled following sixteen meetings held between July, 1983 and February, 1989 by the Special Joint Committee of Experts. On 18th September, 1989, a Delimitation Treaty of the Boundary between the Republic of Zambia and the Republic of Congo from Lake Tanganyika to main Beacon No. XXVII, was signed to resolve the boundary dispute. This was later to be followed by the actual physical demarcation of the boundary to be described in a protocol in line with the term of reference (c). Unfortunately, the actual physical demarcation of the boundary had not been carried out, and the Special Joint Committee of Experts had not met since the eighteenth session of July, 1998. The following progress had been made on the implementation of the Decisions of the Joint Committee: (a) harmonization of the English and French Texts of the Draft Treaty; (b) harmonization of the Enlarged Extract of the Map Illustrating the Zambia/Congo Boundary; (c) finalisation of the Transparencies of the Map and the Enlarged Extract; (d) printing two English and two French Originals of the Final General Map; (e) printing and Bind appendices II and III into one Volume in Zambia; and (f) preparation of the Final Cartographic Documents. 2 Furthermore, seventy-seven books of Maps in French and 77 in English were produced. Demarcation of the Boundary under the Term of Reference (C) A corridor of aerial photography covering the Zambia/Congo border between Lake Mweru and Lake Tanganyika was undertaken in 1991. The next phase was to put concrete beacons along the area that was photographed. However, this could not be accomplished under the normal bilateral arrangements due to the out-break of hostilities in the Congo since the last meeting in 1998. However, the Zambia Congo-DR Joint Technical Committee of Experts on the border demarcation met in Lusaka from 7th - 10th March, 2006 and resolved to do the following: - the joint survey team should meet to plan for the physical demarcation of the unmarked international boundary which has taken too long to be implemented mainly due to limited financial resources of the two countries; - to finalize a joint project proposal to be submitted by the two Governments to cooperating partners for funding and that the joint proposal would indicate the percentage to be contributed by the two Governments and the percentage to be contributed by the prospective cooperating partners; - that January, 2007, should be the commencement month for the project since both Governments did not provide for the exercise in their respective budgets; - special tailored training in Global Positioning System (GPS) and Geographical Information System (GIS) should be arranged for the twelve officers of the Joint Survey Field Team and that equipment for the exercise be procured by the two Governments; - procurement of sensitization materials that are necessary to notify people along the common border and that people along the border be sensitized so that they are made aware of the reasons for the survey works; and - that the project proposal document be submitted to the Joint Committee of Experts meeting for consideration. Observations and Recommendations In noting the submission, your Committee resolve to close the matter as the Surveyor General, through the Permanent Secretary, explained clearly that no country would lose land to the other. 24/97 - Construction of the Chembe Bridge and Tarring of the Pedicle Road On 18th February, 1997, the Honourable Minister made the following assurance on the floor of the House: “The tarring of the Pedicle Road (the shortest route to Luapula and Northern Provinces) and improvement of the treatment to Zambians who travel on that road to the two provinces, Northern and Luapula, will be looked into.” The previous Committee had observed that although the Governments had given an assurance in the House that the construction of the bridge was well on its way, it was still very far from being completed. They further observed that the Japanese entourage had expressed some reservation about constructing a bridge on behalf of Zambia in a foreign land. Your previous Committee recommended that the Congolese be brought on board for the negotiations relating to the Chembe bridge and with the putting up of the floating beacons, and resolved to await a progress report. It was reported in the Action Taken Report that the Governments of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Republic of Zambia (GRZ) had agreed to construct the Mokambo-Chembe road and the Bridge across the Luapula River at Chembe. It had been agreed that the Zambian Government would source funds for the projects. Part of the total project cost would be treated as a loan to the DRC, to be repaid later. However, the DRC's preference was for the projects to be financed under the Build, Operate, Transfer (BOT) arrangements. 3 A consultant was engaged to carry out the feasibility study of the Bridge at a contract price of K5 75,168,375.00. The study concluded that the project was viable with an economic rate of return of 13 percent which was higher than the 12 percent official discount rate adopted in Zambia and Democratic Republic of Congo for the development of infrastructure projects.

  • Bridging the Gap Between Household Demand and Community Water Supply?
    KUMAMARU, SMOUT & ODHIAMBO 35th WEDC International Conference, Loughborough, UK, 2011 THE FUTURE OF WATER, SANITATION AND HYGIENE: INNOVATION, ADAPTATION AND ENGAGEMENT IN A CHANGING WORLD Self-supply: bridging the gap between household demand and community water supply? K. Kumamaru, I. Smout & F. Odhiambo REFEREED PAPER 1089 This paper discusses rural water supply at grassroots level, and challenges the assumption that a community water supply facility is the only solution for rural water supply, especially in sparsely populated areas. A comparison is made between two water service models from case studies in Zambia: those with conventional communal water supplies and Self Supply models. Findings revealed that a Self Supply service could significantly reduce faecal contamination risk in water quality and deliver higher per capita water use and better convenience of access than conventional supply, yet its reliability regarding water source dry up requires to be monitored. A conventional community-based water service may not fulfil the households’ demand due to the nature of community ownership and the distance from household to a community water facility. Since the underlying service delivery models are different, an integrated approach is required for a rural water supply strategy and national policy. Introduction The priority for sustainable rural water supplies has changed from „providing the physical systems‟ to „delivering the water service‟ over the past few decades. The water sector generates a lot of analyses on costs, designs, post-construction supports, management models, efficiency and sustainability of supplies but these are mostly for conventional communal supply service models (Sutton 2010b). The term „community‟ has no single definition but varies in the context of different view points from the place in which people live, to groups of population, culture, religion and history.

  • Evaluation of Improving Household Food Security and Nutrition in The
    Evaluation of Improving Household Food Security and Nutrition in the Luapula Valley Project (IHFSAN) Report of the Evaluation Mission November 2001 Preface The following draft report represents the views of the independent evaluation mission on the performance and achievements of the IHFSAN (Improving Household Food Security and Nutrition in the Luapula Valley) project. The evaluation was initiated with a view to providing the donor, collaborating agencies and FAO with an independent and objective assessment of the current status of implementation of the project, including a review of problems faced. The mission started on 16 September 2001 and ended on 5 October 2001; nine communities involved in the IHFSAN project were visited and numerous collaborators at field, district and provincial level were met. In addition, the mission visited relevant offices in Lusaka. The evaluation was a challenging task given the complex history of the project, the amount of reports, correspondence etc. produced, as well as the relative scarcity of information available on the project’s outcomes and impact. The evaluation mission is most appreciative of the efforts made by the staff and management of IHFSAN, the GRZ officers in the districts visited, and the FAO representation, as well as a range of other individuals who provided information and discussed issues in a frank and constructive manner. The community groups met provided valuable insights and always gave a warm welcome to the mission. In the districts, brainstorming sessions were organized with district officers and Community Support Staff (CSS), which produced sometimes surprising results. The draft report has also benefited from briefings and discussions with ESNP (nutrition), AGPC (crop production) and AGSM (marketing and rural finance) staff members at FAO headquarters in Rome.

These conditions are as a result of environmental degradation such as deforestation, indiscriminate waste disposal, poor health and sanitation, water pollution and land degradation to mention but a few. Environmental mismanagement affects both human beings and other living organisms in different ways, such as outbreaks of diseases like cholera which is very common in Nchelenge district especially Kashikishi settlement and islands where it has become an annual event. Such diseases could be due to unfriendly environmental practices by the local people, who may probably, have very limited knowledge on how to utilize the environment in a more sustainable manner.

  • High Burden of Malaria Following Scale-Up of Control Interventions In
    Mukonka et al. Malaria Journal 2014, 13:153 http://www.malariajournal.com/content/13/1/153 RESEARCH Open Access High burden of malaria following scale-up of control interventions in Nchelenge District, Luapula Province, Zambia Victor M Mukonka1, Emmanuel Chanda2, Ubydul Haque3*, Mulakwa Kamuliwo2, Gabriel Mushinge4, Jackson Chileshe5, Kennedy A Chibwe6, Douglas E Norris3, Modest Mulenga7, Mike Chaponda7, Mbanga Muleba7, Gregory E Glass3 and William J Moss3,8 Abstract Background: Malaria control interventions have been scaled-up in Zambia in conjunction with a malaria surveillance system. Although substantial progress has been achieved in reducing morbidity and mortality, national and local information demonstrated marked heterogeneity in the impact of malaria control across the country. This study reports the high burden of malaria in Nchelenge District, Luapula Province, Zambia from 2006 to 2012 after seven years of control measures. Methods: Yearly aggregated information on cases of malaria, malaria deaths, use of malaria diagnostics, and malaria control interventions from 2006 to 2012 were obtained from the Nchelenge District Health Office. Trends in the number of malaria cases, methods of diagnosis, malaria positivity rate among pregnant women, and intervention coverage were analysed using descriptive statistics. Results: Malaria prevalence remained high, increasing from 38% in 2006 to 53% in 2012. Increasing numbers of cases of severe malaria were reported until 2010. Intense seasonal malaria transmission was observed with seasonal declines in the number of cases between April and August, although malaria transmission continued throughout the year. Clinical diagnosis without accompanying confirmation declined from 95% in 2006 to 35% in 2012. Intervention coverage with long-lasting insecticide-treated nets and indoor residual spraying increased from 2006 to 2012.

Briefly describe any significant highlights/accomplishments that took place during this reporting period. Please limit your comments to a maximum of 4 to 6 sentences. • Following the gaps that were identified during the routine TA visits to the districts in the first and second quarters, MCSP engaged the districts in the supported provinces in revising their 2018 annual workplans and budgets based on the data (scorecards) and service quality assessment (SQA) findings. Using these tools, MCSP influenced the inclusion of appropriate high-impact interventions (HIIs) to respond to identified gaps in the revised workplans and recommended the allocation of resources in an equitable manner. Consequently, Districts revised the 2018 CoC plans to incorporate these recommendations and identified interventions that would be included in the 2019 plans in all provinces. Additional details are provided in the provincial report annexes. • MCSP provided technical assistance (TA) during the provincial integrated management meeting (PIM) across all of the four target provinces. These meetings provided an opportunity for MCSP to identify areas requiring TA in a context-specific and responsive manner to the needs of each district. MCSP contributed to discussions in those meetings by making on-the-spot recommendations for improving specific indicators. For example, using a very brief role play, MCSP graphically showed districts a simple way of estimating the number of new FP acceptors.
