Agreements

A statement from the Nauru government Friday, June 9 said Finance Minister Martin Hunt signed the agreement with Australian High Commissioner Helen Cheney in Yaren.

It said the funding from Canberra will go towards the education sector and improving Covid response capabilities.

Hunt said it will help establish a quality learning environment for Naruan students.

The EPA and the EGFA were signed by Acting President David Adeang and the newly appointed New Zealand High Commissioner to Nauru Nicola Simmonds on the margins of Ms Simmonds presentation of credentials recently.

The EPA outlined details of the funding arrangement as well as project implementation structures and processes for New Zealand’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (NZ MFAT) funded renewable energy project.
