All concessions in the GMA ( game management areas) is still banned.

The only legal hunting in Zambia at present is on pvt land. Lets hope they sort out the corruption concerns soon and reissue concessions in time for next year. (Although everything here happens quite slowly) as mentioned, most concession were held by Indians and by all accounts a fair amount of palm greasing took place to secure these concessions, so looks like the change in government opened up the opportunity to put new people in the ZAWA (Zambia wildlife) so either they now want their cut, or they may genuinely want to award them openly and fairly.......time will tell.

Will try update the story when news becomes available.
