ZIMRA takes the point in limine that the administration of motor insurance cover for foreign motor vehicles is the prerogative of the Minister of Transport who appoints approved parties to implement the relevant provisions of the Road Traffic Act. Consequently, he should have been cited as a party to these proceedings, and the failure to do so constitutes a material non-joinder. It is further averred that the MIP, acting through its members, acquired the requisite statutory approval to issue temporary insurance cover for foreign motor vehicles. Thereafter, it duly mandated ZIMRA as its agent to issue insurance cover and collect premiums on its behalf.
