- THE PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE: On the 31st March, 2020 the Constitutional Court passed a judgement to the effect that the Constitution of Zimbabwe Amendment Bill (No. 1) (H.B 1A, 2017) was unprocedurally passed by Parliament. The Court is of the view that the Senate did not comply with Section 328 (5) of the Constitution when it approved the third reading of the Bill on the 1st of August, 2017. It is for this reason that the Court ordered that the Bill must be referred back to the Senate at the third reading stage. Accordingly, the Bill is referred back to the Senate at the third reading stage in order to comply with the provisions of Section 328 (5) of the
Constitution of Zimbabwe”
- THE PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE: On 3rd April 2020, Parliament was notified by the Movement for Democratic Change- Tsvangirai party (MDC-T) that Hon. Sen. L. Timveos
2
representing the Midlands Province had ceased to be the member of the MDC-T party and, therefore, no longer represents the interest of the party in parliament.
Section 129 (1) (k) of the Constitution of Zimbabwe provides that, “the seat of a Member of Parliament becomes vacant if the Member has ceased to belong to the political party of which he or she was a Member when elected to Parliament and the political party concerned, by written notice to the Speaker or to the President of the Senate as the case may be, has declared that the member has ceased to belong to it. “
Pursuant to the above, I do hereby inform the House that a vacancy has arisen in the Senate by the operation of the law. The necessary administrative measures will be taken to inform His Excellency, the President, of the Republic of Zimbabwe and the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) of the existence of the vacancy in line with section 39(1) of the Electoral Act [Chapter 213] as amended.
- THE PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE: On 6th April 2020, Parliament received a letter from Hon. Hwende dated 3rd April 2020 purporting to recall Hon. Mwonzora and Hon. Komichi in terms of Section 129(1)(k) of the Constitution. Having studied the said Section of the Constitution and the recent Court judgement in the case of MDC and Others v Mashavira and Others, No. S.C 56/2020, I am satisfied that the purported recall is null and void for its lack of compliance with the Supreme Court ruling cited herein.
- On the motion of the Minister of Finance and Economic Development: The Senate adjourned at thirteen minutes to three o’clock pm until Tuesday 19 May 2020 at a half past two o’clock.
HON. M. M. CHINOMONA, President of the Senate.
