Recommendations
The Committee makes the following recommendations:
The Plumtree to Mutare Highway Project
The Committee makes the finding that the Plumtree-Mutare Highway Project, covered by the Development Bank of Southern Africa Limited (DBSA) and Infralink (Private) Limited was a proper PPP, covered by the definition of a PPP in international law and Zimbabwe’s Joint Venture Act [Chapter 22:22]
The Committee makes the finding that Zimbabwe must express gratitude to the Republic of South Africa and to DBSA for providing a loan of US$ 206 million at a time no other country was willing to provide Zimbabwe with any resources.
The Committee makes the findings that, Zimbabwe must therefore honour its contracts in respect of the Plumtree to Mutare Highway Project.
However, to the extent that some of the conditions of this contracts are now too onerous for ZINARA, the Committee makes the finding that ZINARA must renegotiate these contracts to suit the limited scope and capacity.
Recommendation
The Minister of Transport is directed, within three months of the presentation of this report to Parliament to present a report to Parliament on the Plumtree-Mutare Highway Project and all other incidental issues including the result or status of the renegotiation process.
