Zambia Page 1 of 16
Zambia Page 1 of 16 Zambia Country Reports on Human Rights Practices - 2002 Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor March 31, 2003 Zambia is a republic governed by a president and a unicameral national assembly. Since 1991 generally free and fair multiparty elections have resulted in the victory of the Movement for Multi -Party Democracy (MMD). In December 2001, Levy Mwanawasa of the MMD was elected president, and his party won 69 out of 150 elected seats in the National Assembly. The MMD's use of government resources during the campaign raised questions over the fairness of the elections. Although noting general transparency during the voting, domestic and international observer groups cited irregularities in the registration process and problems in the tabulation of the election results. Opposition parties challenged the election result in court, and court proceedings remained ongoing at year's end. The Constitution mandates an independent judiciary, and the Government generally respected this provision; however, the judicial system was hampered by lack of resources, inefficiency, and reports of possible corruption. The police, divided into regular and paramilitary units operated under the Ministry of Home Affairs, had primary responsibility for maintaining law and order. The Zambia Security and Intelligence Service (ZSIS), under the Office of the President, was responsible for intelligence and internal security. Members of the security forces committed numerous, and at times serious, human rights abuses. Approximately 60 percent of the labor force worked in agriculture, although agriculture contributed only 22 percent to the gross domestic product. Economic growth slowed to 3 percent for the year, partly as a result of drought in some agricultural areas. -

Corporate Affairs and Business Development
CORPORATE AFFAIRS AND BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT THE PROPOSED CONNECTION OF NORTH WESTERN PROVINCE TO THE NATIONAL GRID AT 132kV PREPARED BY THE ENVIRONMENT AND SOCIAL AFFAIRS UNIT 2011 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In the Northwestern Province (NWP) ZESCO Limited supplies electricity to five districts namely Mwinilunga, Mufumbwe, Kabompo, Zambezi and Chavuma from isolated Diesel Generation Stations located in each district. The older districts (Mwinilunga, Kabompo, and Zambezi) have been on diesel power supply for over forty years now. Solwezi and Kasempa are the only two districts in the province that are supplied from the national hydro power grid. Power supply from the diesel power stations is characterized by high operational costs, inadequate capacity, very low reliability and high emissions. ZESCO Limited has therefore long sought to replace diesel generated power supply with reliable and cost effective power from the national grid by connecting all the diesel power stations to the grid. By the year 2000, ZESCO Limited was operating ten diesel stations country wide, but by 2007, four such stations had been replaced by grid supply while two new stations were installed in two newly designated districts. Despite having great potential for mining and agricultural development, NWP generally remains underdeveloped due to insufficient and unreliable power supply. It is against this background that the Government of the Republic of Zambia through ZESCO Limited, intends to connect the 5 NWP Districts still on diesel, to the National Grid at 132 kilo Volts (kV) through a transmission line network from Kasempa T-Off (Nselauke) to Chavuma and linking Mwinilunga to Lumwana. The main objective of the project is to replace the diesel generated electricity with hydro electricity by constructing a 132kV transmission line network which would be linked to the main national power grid. -
