THE Electoral Commission of Zambia (ECZ) says it is reviewing the 2019 Delimitation Report, taking into consideration various factors outlined in Article 59 of the Constitution of Zambia to provide input into the constitutional review process.
Chief Electoral Officer Brown Kasaro said the Commission has taken note of the ongoing public discourse and stakeholder inquiries concerning delimitation, particularly in relation to the broader national debate on constitutional review.
Mr Kasaro noted that the 2019 Delimitation Report resulted from nationwide stakeholder consultations.
“Once this internal process is concluded, the Commission will provide a comprehensive update and engage stakeholders accordingly,” he said.
Mr Kasaro further stated that the Electoral Reform Technical Committee (ERTC), which received submissions from a wide range of stakeholders from all 10 provinces in October 2024, is in the final stages of concluding its report.
He said in line with the published roadmap, the report will be submitted to the Executive on April 22, 2025.
“The ECZ remains committed to transparency, stakeholder engagement, and the promotion of a credible electoral process,” he said.
