Government is currently consulting stakeholders on the development of a successor Zimbabwe Agenda for Sustainable Socio Economic Transformation (Zim-Asset) programme covering just two years.

The consultative meetings are being held through the Ministry of Macro-Economic Planning and Investment Promotion.

Zim-Asset, the country's economic blueprint was launched in October 2013 and is due to run until October next year.

The first phase of Zim-Asset is coming to an end in 2018.

It is essential that Government develops a successor Zim-Asset II programme covering the period 2019 to 2020 said Macro Economic permanent secretary Judith Kateera in a letter to stakeholders.

The deliberations at the workshop which started on Monday and will run through today will focus on achievements and challenges faced during the implementation period 2013 to date.
