    Harare (New Ziana) -Speaker of Parliament, Jacob Mudenda, is in South Africa for the Executive Committee (EXCO) of the Southern African Development Community Parliamentary Forum (SADC PF), a precursor event to the 55th Plenary Assembly Session to be held in Luanda, Angola next month.

    In a statement, Parliament said the Executive Committee is meeting in accordance with its mandate outlined in Article 12 of the SADC PF Constitution, which provides that the “Executive Committee shall be responsible for the management of the affairs of the Forum, giving direction to the Secretariat and ensuring that the decisions of the Plenary Assembly are implemented and shall be answerable to the Plenary Assembly”.

    “Furthermore, Speaker Mudenda’s attendance is clearly outlined in Article 12 (2) which delineates the Executive Committee consisting of Presiding Officers, Representatives designated by the Member Parliaments and the Chairperson of the Regional Women’s Parliamentary Caucus as an ex-officio member,” it said.

    The Executive Committee (EXCO) of the SADC PF convened as a precursor to the upcoming 55th Plenary Assembly meeting, scheduled to take place in Luanda, Angola between July 1 and 7.

    Key issues that came under the spotlight were the approval of minutes from the previous meeting, consideration of various sub-committee reports and the development of strategic initiatives.

    “Notable contributions were made by the President of the SADC PF, Hon. Speaker Roger Mancienne and other esteemed members such as Senator Isaac Magagula, who presented the Treasurer’s report,” said the Ministry, adding the EXCO’s recommendations, as guided by the SADC PF Constitution, will be submitted for further discussion and adoption at the Plenary Assembly.

    The process, The Ministry said, ensures that all decisions are made with thorough deliberation and adherence to the constitutional framework, paving the way for effective governance and regional integration.
