The Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (ZIMRA) wishes to set the record straight in connection with misleading and incorrect reports in the print and electronic media purporting that rehabilitation work at Morton Jaffrey Water Works has been stalled by ZIMRA.
The reports, which were published in The Herald, Daily News and Newsday on 15 July 2014 and also broadcast by the Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation’s (ZBC) radio and television stations claiming that the water project has been stalled by the impounding of water equipment by ZIMRA, are totally incorrect.
The correct position is that no such equipment is being held by ZIMRA either at Forbes Border Post or at any other ZIMRA station. No clearance documentation has been submitted to ZIMRA by the importer or the importer’s clearing agent.
As such, ZIMRA cannot be said to be stalling the water project when the importation of the said equipment has not yet been brought to its attention for processing in accordance with the laws of the country.
