- #PRE-COP31TOWNHALL| 12 years after Vunidogoloa Village in Vanua Levu was relocated, residents are still seeking answers.
Former headman Sailosi Ramatu has raised concerns over drainage, access for the elderly and people with disabilities, a community church, playground, farm road and evacuation facilities.
Speaking at the Pre-COP31 Climate Change Town Hall Forum in Nukubalavu this evening, Ramatu says the community has repeatedly sought Government assistance, but several issues remain unresolved.
Deputy Prime Minister Manoa Kamikamica acknowledged the concerns and says previous community relocations had been carried out in an ad hoc manner, while Minister for Rural and Maritime Development and Disaster Management Mosese Bulitavu says some of the issues raised were not adequately considered in the original relocation package.
Bulitavu says the Government will link the concerns raised by Ramatu with relevant programmes for further consideration.

However, when questioned on whether there would be enough time to prepare for and hold the next general election under a new Constitution if the proposed changes come into effect by December 24th, Rabuka, says if the Constitution is changed, transition provisions will determine which Constitution or electoral law the election will be held under.

Limited access to sterile injecting equipment is leading some drug users to share equipment, increasing the risk of HIV and Hepatitis C transmission.
The Needle and Syringe Programme aims to reduce this risk by providing sterile needles, syringes and safe mixing equipment through approved providers and peer outreach workers.
The Ministry stresses that the programme does not endorse drug use. Its public health focus is harm reduction and preventing infections, while drug enforcement remains the responsibility of law enforcement agencies.

- #fvONSCENE | There is flooding again behind MHCC where Suva City Council has continually highlighted that it is a drainage issue.
The area has experienced repeated flooding whenever there is significant rainfall, with the drainage system unable to cope with the water.
Suva City Council CEO Tevita Boseiwaqa says the Fiji Roads Authority is assessing the work required, while the Water Authority of Fiji may also need to be involved.
He says the Council will need to meet with the two authorities to determine the best long-term solution to address the persistent flooding.
We have sent further questions to the FRA and SCC, and are awaiting their responses.
