Following the failure by Chitungwiza Municipality and Harare Council to pay nurses resulting in reduction in service delivery, Cabinet has directed that nursing staff in the two municipalities be placed under the Public Service Commission & be paid through SSB.

Risk allowances for the affected workers will also be paid. Further, Cabinet tasked the Minister of Finance to ensure the municipalities account fully for the resources that they were allocated for Covid19 response.
