Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. By Anna Chibamu – PARLIAMENT will avail a chartered flight for MPs to attend the 2022 annual pre-budget seminar in the resort city of Victoria Falls.
House of Assembly Speaker Jacob Mudenda confirmed the 2022 pre-budget seminar will be held this weekend.
Mudenda told National Assembly members Tuesday all MPs residing from provinces furthest Victoria Falls, such as Harare, Mashonaland East, West, Central, Manicaland will fly to the resort city Friday morning.
However, MPs from Masvingo, Midlands, Bulawayo, Matabeleland North, Matabeleland South province will use their parliamentary-issued vehicles to travel for the all-paid weekend seminar.
The seminar follows public consultations carried out countrywide by Parliament ahead of the 2022 national budget to be presented by Finance Minister Mthuli Ncube next month.
However, previous national budgets have come under fire from citizens who feel the budgets have become documents filled with figures with no meaning as the country’s economy continues to worsen.
