“Chipata City Council remains committed to ensuring that the approved implementation schedule is strictly adhered to and that beneficiary allocations are implemented accordingly,” Lungu stated.
She said this would promote efficient programme delivery and help prevent the accumulation of payment arrears.
Lungu assured the public that under this phase of the programme all the challenges experienced in the previous Cash for Work programme had been addressed.
“The Council further wishes to urge members of the public to cooperate with the recruitment teams and provide accurate information during the registration and verification process to ensure the successful implementation of the programme,” she said.
