A PR MP can raise disability barriers in laws, budgets and public services, ensuring disability concerns are heard in Parliament. #ZambiaMMPRSystem

[Chiradza @Chiradza3c]

Accountability is for everyone! Any citizen can ask a PR MP how they are carrying out their parliamentary role. What issues have they raised? How have they contributed to debates, budget scrutiny or committee work? Ask!

[Kathy Chisulo @kathywalu64122]

Your concerns matter. You can share evidence of barriers in laws, budgets or public services and engage PR MPs to help bring these issues into Parliament.

Know your voice. Know your representation. 👇🏽

Their role is not tied to one specific constituency, but they can still be part of conversations around issues affecting the groups they represent.

[Kathy Chisulo @kathywalu64122]

You have a concern. Can a PR MP hear you out? Let’s understand their role. 👇🏽

#ZambiaMMPRSystem #CivicParticipation #KnowYourSystem

[Kathy Chisulo @kathywalu64122]

A PR MP reaches Parliament through a political party’s PR process, but serves in a public institution. You can share concerns with them, ask questions and seek to understand the work they are doing in Parliament.

[Makaliki Patrick @Drmakaliki_tp]

PR MPs are not half MPs. They can serve on parliamentary committees and participate fully in examining proposed laws, public spending and government work. #ZambiaMMPRSystem

[Kathy Chisulo @kathywalu64122]

The important thing to understand is that these MPs do not represent a particular constituency like a constituency MP does. Their representation is based on the category they were elected under: women, youth or persons with disabilities.

[Kathy Chisulo @kathywalu64122]

You have seen the new PR MPs. But do you know what their presence in Parliament means for you? 👀

Check the comments section 👇 and take a keen interest in understanding their role and how they can represent broader concerns in Parliament.

[Kathy Chisulo @kathywalu64122]

Think about it this way 👇🏽

If you are a person with a disability and there are challenges around accessibility, inclusion or the rights of persons with disabilities, MPs such as Lazarus Hakalebula and Francis Kope were brought into Parliament .

[Mr Hamunyanga @TongaBooGeo]

DID YOU KNOW?

[Kathy Chisulo @kathywalu64122]

So, what does a PR MP actually do in Parliament?

Just like other MPs, they can take part in budget debates, question how public money is being spent and speak up on issues affecting the people and groups they represent.

#ZambiaMMPRSystem #CivicParticipation #KnowYourSystem

[Kathy Chisulo @kathywalu64122]

So that women, youth, and persons with disabilities are not left out.

[Kathy Chisulo @kathywalu64122]

Ever felt like no one in council is listening to you?

Your PR councillor is there to change that. They carry your voice into every council meeting about water, roads, clinics and more.
