Legal Publications Unit IEC Materials Printed Paralegal Zephania Chakawa with visitors to the LRF stand at ZIBF The LPU has continued to offer support for LRF programmes through the production of plainly written IEC materials for distribution to beneficiaries. The publication of legal texts remained largely stalled pending the harmonisation of the laws with the Constitution. Legal Texts Zimbabwe Law Report 2012 (2) 700 copies Magistrates Civil Court Rules 62 copies Zimbabwean Law of Delict 26 copies Local Courts Handbook 200 copies Constitution of Zimbabwe 20th Amendment 100 copies Zimbabwe Law Reports Online The LRF entered into an agreement with Juta Publishers to have the Zimbabwe Law Reports available online from 1980 to date. This involved sending all reports from 2000 to date to Juta for conversion. The project is due to be completed in March 2016 and will then be launched.
