Well said bwana, amendment indeed is need but not breaking it, and every one knows red tape just frustrate progress but amending it will be welcomed move…..but yet again we know that amending any such laws again will take two years by then your government if not careful would have been voted out and people would have forgotten what causes such delays to developing our mother Zambia
If it were RB, he would have removed the abuse of office clause from the ACC Act instead of reforming the Public Procurement Act, that corrupt chap!
That red tape is there to stop YOU, sir, from handing contracts to YOUR relatives or to YOURSELF. Leave it as it is.
OK, this is MOHA but is crowd control really the best example of a “development plan” this cadre can think of as being held up by slow procurement?
Increased riots? Bwahahahah… maybe the deputy minister should ask himself WHY there are increased riots!
Could it be because of PF’s flip-flops and unfulfilled promises? Or maybe it’s because this “listening government” prefers to bottle things up by refusing to allow any kind of demonstration against its policies?
Anyway, before expressing frustration with established procedure, this cadre would do well to say how relaxing procurement rules DESIGNED TO PREVENT CORRUPTION would somehow have the opposite effect. The rules are there for a reason and the last thing we need are more contracts given out as patronage!
Forward planning can also help. How often should government houses be repainted for-example, then the six months waiting period is more than sufficient.
