AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

PNG–Solomon Investment Push: Prime Ministers Matthew Wale and James Marape opened the inaugural PNG–Solomon Islands Investment Conference in Honiara, urging a “growth corridor” that turns Melanesian ties into structured, bankable partnerships, jobs and downstream processing. Tax Reform Consultation: The GREAT Government released its Draft Formal Tax Policy Work Programme 2026–2028 for public feedback, aiming for a more open, transparent tax policy process. Malaria Drive: Health officials launched a National Malaria Elimination Roadmap 2026–2040, targeting zero malaria deaths by 2030 and nationwide elimination by 2038. Mining Company Row: Opposition rejected the Government and AG’s explanation over SIMHL registration, while the Government says it was an “honest administrative mistake” and promises corrections. World Bank Fiscal Advice: The World Bank urged Solomon Islands to fast-track VAT and Mineral Resources reforms, warning mining is overtaking logging but jobs and outcomes depend on tax policy. Peacebuilding Funding: A US$3m peacebuilding fund programme was launched to support peace, cohesion, governance and decentralisation across all provinces. Sports: Central Coast FC reached the OFC Men’s Champions League final after a dramatic extra-time win over Galaxy FC, setting up a Ba showdown.
