All government ministries in Zimbabwe are now online and the Ministry of Information and Communication Technology is working on cascading the programmes to the provinces, Minister Nelson Chamisa has said.

Responding to questions from Parliamentarians in the House of Assembly last week, Hon. Chamisa said e-government was in full operation in all ministries. "E-Government has already been rolled out by government and I am sure that you are aware of the fact that we launched the e-learning programme at Chogugudza School which was part of the e-government programme that the government has embarked on," said Hon. Chamisa.

He added in response to a question by Mkoba MP, Hon. Amos Chibaya that; "It is part of our ZIM CONNECT document and I am glad to say our Members of Parliament are also beneficiaries of the e-government programme and very soon the things will be brought to them."

Hon. Chamisa said he was aware of some ministries that were encountering challenges. "It may be an issue of the last mile connection which becomes a subjective problem to do with a particular ministry but in terms of content uploading, all our ministries are now online and I must say that we also would want those programmes to now cascade to the districts, to our various provincial offices and also ward offices," he said.

In his Zimbabwe Medium Term Plan 2011 - 2015, the Minister of Economic Planning and Investment Promotion, Hon. Tapiwa Mashakada says his ministry's policy objectives are to transform government operation, service delivery through effective use of ICTs; and to transform the country into a knowledge based society.

Hon. Mashakada's policy target was for e-government connectivity and services to all government ministries and public institutions such as education and health establishments by 2012.
