Government has appointed an advisory board for Harare which will assist with ideas on voluntary basis, in a move expected to improve service delivery and instil confidence among residents.
The 19-member board would advise on various issues, including water and sanitation, as well as infrastructural development in the capital.
Briefing journalists in the capital, Minister of State Harare Metropolitan Provincial Affairs Oliver Chidawu, said the move was aimed at decentralisation of decision making by allowing residents to participate through their representatives.
