The Principal Clerk of Parliamentary Reforms Programme (Programme Management) at the National Assembly, Mr Kamanga has urged the newly recruited constituency office staff to understand the critical role that constituency offices play in supporting the work of Members of Parliament.
Speaking when he officially opened the orientation workshop for thirty-one newly recruited constituency office staff on Monday, 16th May, 2022 at Ndozo Lodge in Chilanga, Mr Kamanga emphasized that constituency offices were set up for Members of Parliament to interact with constituents and to also serve as representation of the National Assembly at local level.
In addition, the constituency office staff had a privilege to meet the Chief Accountant, Dr Mweemba Muungo who urged them to apply the knowledge they had acquired during the workshop in their work. He emphasized the need to observe timeliness when submitting monthly financial reports.
