Legislators owed $1,6m in unpaid allowances
Harare Bureau
GOVERNMENT has failed to pay over $1,6 million owed to Members of Parliament in unpaid sitting and subsistence allowances for 2012.
This comes amid indications that Treasury has not instructed Parliament on how the once off $15 000 payment given to each legislator in December 2011 should be accounted for.
According to payment structures agreed, each legislator is entitled to $75 per sitting and judging by the estimated number of sittings for 2012 and the total number of legislators, the lawmakers should be paid a cumulative $1,6 million.
The $15 000 once-off payment did not take into account the number of sittings one had, creating a scenario where one might either be overpaid or underpaid.
With barely three months before Parliament is dissolved to pave way for harmonised elections, most legislators fear they might leave the House empty-handed.Top midfielder wants to join Bosso
