AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Community Fisheries Support: MFMR has completed a workshop in Honiara to develop a village-led community fisheries guide and an officer tracking app, with NZ support via SPC’s Pacific Fisheries Leadership Program, and will now test and refine both with communities to strengthen local fisheries management. Parliament & Mining Law: The Bills and Legislation Committee rejected claims that extra consultation on the Mineral Resources Bill 2025 would cost $1b, arguing rushed legislation risks fractured trust and instability, and has recommended the bill be withdrawn for wider consultation. Road Safety & Accountability: MID says road signs and public infrastructure on the Henderson–Alligator corridor are being damaged and urges communities to protect the assets. Public Finance Warning: The IMF warns weak financial management is constraining implementation, projecting slower growth and higher inflation, and calls for tighter fiscal discipline and realistic, fully funded budgets. Development Delivery: Shortlands handed over 57 boats and 57 outboard engines to applicants, while West Makira received a China-funded $1.5m maritime transport boost (17 boats, 18 engines) to support remote services. Democracy & Rights: Transparency Solomon Islands marks International Democracy Day by stressing democracy depends on human rights, transparency, and accountability beyond elections. Humanitarian UXO Focus: A regional dialogue in Palau highlighted survivor-led calls for stronger UXO response that includes rehabilitation, livelihoods, and survivor voices.
