Concerns have been raised about the effectiveness of the stop-work order issued by the Fiji Lands Ministry to curb illegal sand and gravel extraction.
According to the Auditor General’s Report on Compliance Audit Report Relating to COVID-19 Response, 46 stop-work order notices were issued by the Fiji Lands Ministry.
Public Accounts Committee Member Aseri Radrodro claims these have been ineffective as illegal operations still continue.
