Mnangagwa Likely To Summon Parliament Back For The Delimitation Report
President Emmerson Mnangagwa is likely to summon Parliament back from adjournment to deal with the urgent delimitation preliminary report, reported OpenParly.
Parliament adjourned after passing the 2023 national budget and is not due to return before the 24th of January 2023.
However, Zimbabwe Electoral Commission chairperson (ZEC) Priscilla Chigumba on Monday submitted a copy of the Preliminary Delimitation Report to Mnangagwa at State House.
Mnangagwa has 7 working days after receiving it within which to cause the tabling of the report to Parliament.
The 7 days end on the 6th of January 2023 and this means that he has to summon Parliament so that the report can be tabled.

After receiving the report from the President, Parliament is given 14 sitting days to study the report before submitting its opinions to the President.
If the results of the report are going to be used for the 2023 general elections, Section 161 of the constitution says the final report must have been gazetted at least six months before the polls.
A few months ago ZEC said general elections should be held between July and August 2023. | OpenParly
