Full payment of enumerators in doubt
Harare Bureau
THE payment of full allowances to 2012 census enumerators is now in doubt as Government is concentrating on raising salaries for civil servants.
Finance Ministry principal director Mr Pfungwa Kunaka said Treasury was trying to strike a balance between raising money for salaries and paying the enumerators.
He described the delay in paying enumerators as a “cashflow management issue”.
“We also have salaries to pay and this means we have to strike a balance between paying the salaries and paying their allowances. We are looking for the money to pay them.”
Mr Kunaka, however, said the enumerators were likely to be paid “something” this month.
“We gave them the first payment through the $8 million we released to ZimStat and we will make another payment this month once we strike the balance.”
