Members of the public had the opportunity to raise queries and concerns on land development in the country at a public consultation organised in Suva today.
Today's meeting was led by Minister Lands and Mineral resources Mereseini Vuniwaqa who was joined by her permanent secretary Tevita Boseiwaqa and ministry staff.
Issues raised at the meeting included State Land, Land Bank, Foreshore and Mining Development.
Vuniwaqa said they wanted to solve these issues so that they are able to create a close working group with landowners and the ministry so there is a better service and faster turnaround time.
She said they hope that through this consultation, the ministry will be able to be more strategic in their systems and processes to improve their service delivery to the public.
