Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP)

The recently enacted Environmental Management Act (EMA) calls for the development of a National Liquid Waste Management Strategy (the National Solid Waste Management Strategy and Action Plan was developed in 2005). The proposed Liquid Waste Strategy will set the direction for sustainable liquid waste management in Fiji, and was developed through a process of wide consultation with all stakeholders involved in the production and the management of liquid waste. The government will take the lead in implementing the strategy, working in close partnership with local government and other key stakeholders.

There is no shortage of provisions relating to waste management issues in the current laws of Kiribati. While it may be useful to consider the opportunities for recognising the role of the community in waste management under the laws of Kiribati, there would appear to be only limited scope for effective legislative action in this regard. The role of Local Government Councils is clear and this is effectively provided for the in the Local Government Act 1984. If the problem is one of planning, capacity or prioritisation, or any combination of these, then amendment to the laws of Kiribati is unlikely to provide an effective outcome.
