GOVT TO ENGAGE PPP PARTNERS
By Mary Kachepa
Government says it is streamlining the process of engaging potential partners in the Public Private Partnerships.
Infrastructure, Housing and Urban Development Minister CHARLES MILUPI says this initiative and others being implemented are meant to support the real estate industry.
Mr. MILUPI says government is also promoting alternative methods of construction in order to reduce costs of construction.
He further says government is also reviewing legal and policy framework to support infrastructure development.
Mr. MILUPI was speaking when he opened the 5th ZAM REAL Property Forum under the theme “a new horizon in Lusaka today.”
And Mr. MILUPI said government will only engage with stakeholders who adhere to the set fundamental principles of delivering at the right time, procuring infrastructure projects at the correct price and according to prescribed quality.
