SAVO RUSSELLS AND CIP GOV’T COMMENCE FISHERIES DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME
Regardless of the country’s current Covid-19 State of Emergency, the Savo-Russell constituency in collaboration with the Central Islands Provincial Government has commenced work to develop the fisheries sector in the Russell Islands group.
Fisheries is one of the untapped resources that has the potential to improve livelihoods in the Russell Islands once it is properly developed and managed at the rural community level to supply both local and regional markets.
A memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Constituency, the Central Island Provincial Government (CIP) and the Russell Islands Investment Forum (RIFF) was signed today (30th April 2020) to pave the way to begin the development process.
