The Ministry was fortunate to have Ms. Toni Ferdinands, a Senior Pacific Fisheries Advisor from Fisheries New Zealand, engaged with the Management Division in evaluating and discussion progress of strategies and activities in the implementation schedules of the plan and to ensure that objectives were achieved.pic4
The review team also identified challenges of meeting objectives and also set priority activities to be delivered in the remaining life of the plan. This was indeed a great in-depth discussion as the Ministry is able to see the progress of this plan. The outcome of this mid review will be presented in the PMG meeting which will be held on September 2018.
