Harrington advises govt to consult over Mosi-oa-Tunya park development: The Post, Friday August 4. 2006

The Post has quoted William Harrington, former Minister of Tourism (and other ministries) and scion of H.T. “Chiana” Harrington - who put down the slave trade in Northern Zambia, as saying that Government should address the concerns of various stakeholders to ensure environmental sustainability in the development of the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park. He said that it is likely that elephant would attack golfers in the park and that ZAWA would then have to retaliate by killing them. He also welcomed assurances by the Director-General of ZAWA (appointed in May 2006), Dr Lewis Saiwana, that despite ZAWA signing a Tourism Concession Agreement (TCA) with Legacy Holdings Zambia, that the project would not go ahead until the environmental impact assessment report was submitted and approved by the Environmental Council of Zambia (ECZ)
