AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Pacific Games Accountability: An audit into the 2023 Pacific Games found serious procurement and financial-control failures by the National Hosting Authority, including bypassed competition, weak due diligence, poor record-keeping, and misuse of customs duty exemptions, with spending tied to SBD$222.4m. Mineral Governance Fight: The Opposition escalated pressure over the Solomon Islands Mineral Holding Limited (SIMHL) registration, rejecting the Government and Attorney-General’s “administrative mistake” explanation and raising concerns about process, legal authority, and parliamentary scrutiny. Rennell Bauxite Records: The Attorney-General’s update on 33 bauxite shipments says key export records (2019–2021) are missing or incomplete, Central Bank payment records are absent, no refinery certificates/assays were found, and customs documentation is incomplete—deepening questions over royalties and oversight. Conflict-of-Interest Rent Row: Opposition called out PM Matthew Wale over a SBD$1.5m Forestry house rent, after land title links the property to Wale; the Ministry says the tenancy began before he became PM. Public Finance Planning: Government released a draft Formal Tax Policy Work Programme 2026–2028 for public consultation. Health Policy: Solomon Islands launched its malaria elimination roadmap aiming for zero malaria deaths by 2030 and elimination by 2038.
