Africa-Press – Zambia. With the huge Community Development Funds (CDF) which the UPND government is releasing, Kanchibiya MP Sunday Chanda explains the 28 massive projects that will be completed in his constituency,. MP Sunday Chanda writes:
Yesterday, 22nd April 2022, we successfully held our 2022 CDF Committee. I wish to thank the members for their active participation in a sitting that last almost 8 hours due to the overwhelming response from the 10 wards without exception.
We also adopted the list of submitted names for Skills Development with amendments as some of the courses did not fall within the ambit of the CDF Guidelines definition of ‘Skills Development’.
An exhaustive list of shortlisted projects will now go to the technical committee for their input before sending them back to the CDF Committee for our attention and submission to the ministry of Local Government and Rural Development for approval.
We realized that some of the submitted applications for loans had missing information. To this effect, we resolved to defer loans and empowerment to the next CDF sitting to allow for rectification of information so that no one is unfairly disadvantaged. We shall hold our next CDF meeting in the shortest possible time to look at the applications on case by case basis.
A full list of approved projects will be made public using different media platforms. Next week, we start with our Ward Development Forums and thanking the people.
Today I look forward to joining the Minister of Livestock and Fisheries Hon. Makozo Chikote, MP, in Luchembe Chiefdom as he hands over goats to selected Farmers. I wish to thank the Minister in advance for keeping his word to support livestock and fisheries development in Kanchibiya Constituency, among other places.
