Africa-Press – Zambia. <\/strong><\/span>ATTORNEY General Mulilo Kabesha says the Mopani Copper Mines transaction is not covered under Article 210 of the Constitution and therefore does not require approval of the National Assembly.<\/p>\n

Mr Kabesha said in a statement yesterday that Article 210 applies in cases involving the sale, transfer or disposal of a \u201cmajor state asset\u201d which includes a parastatal and equity held by Government.<\/p>\n

He said Mopani is neither a parastatal nor a company in which Government has equity because it is incorporated under the Companies Act, which is a separate legal entity from Government, with transactions involving its issued shares being governed by the regulatory framework of the Act.<\/p>\n
