LT. COL. N. RIKA.- Madam Speaker, I am pleased to present the Review Report of the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and Defence on the Fiji Corrections Service (FCS) 1st January to 31st July 2016 Report. The Standing Committee is established under Section 109(2)(e) of the Standing Orders of the Parliament of the Republic of Fiji. The purpose of the Review was to scrutinise the FCS 2016 Report, specifically on the department’s operations and administration. The FCS has moved from relying on punishment-based approaches to a more modern approach of rehabilitation of the incarcerated persons through the implementation of various Trade and Manufacturing Accounts (TMA) programmes that help build skills and knowledge which will assist them to reintegrate back into society upon release. Madam Speaker, the FCS direction is forward-looking with a vision strategically aligned to the then Government Roadmap for Democracy and Sustainable Development, Socio-Economic Development and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The positive impact of rehabilitation programmes for inmates are evident in all activities of the organisation. The Committee noted that the FCS has made the initiative to address the Sustainable Development Goal, namely the: 1. SDG 1 - No Poverty: The FCS has put in place rehabilitation programmes for inmates with the intention of instilling entrepreneurship skills to make them self-sufficient. Rehabilitation programmes such as: . Vegetable farming; . Crop farming; . Aquaculture (Tilapia farming); . Art Gallery; . Piggery; . Poultry; . Joinery; . Bakery; and . Garment. 2. SDG 2 - End Hunger: The FCS aims to achieve food security and improve nutrition through the promotion of sustainable agriculture. 3. SDG 5 - Gender Equality: The FCS is an equal-opportunity employer and currently within the service, there are good numbers of senior women officers that are placed with senior appointments in the organisation to make a difference. Madam Speaker, the Small Business Units (SBU) of the FCS, operating under the TMA is a prime focus in providing business skillsets to inmates that are selected in various field of work. This will enable inmates upon release to be productive and law-abiding citizens of the country. Madam Speaker, it is worth-noting that revenue collected through TMA in 2016 was $358,160.23 which had doubled from the 2015 Returns. Revenue collected through TMA in 2015 was $103,384.56, the variance TMA collected from 2015 1 January to 31st July is $254,775.67. 16th May, 2018 Presentation of Reports of Committees 1581 The FCS strives to operate seamlessly to maintain quality services to ensure that the deliveries of outcomes including key financial outputs are return of investment to Government. Madam Speaker, the Committee upon review with consultations with the Service had identified areas of concerns that need addressing to ensure the organisation is dynamic and reduces recidivism. Madam Speaker, I take this opportunity to thank the Commissioner of FCS and all officers for the marvellous job well-done with tireless commitment to public service. Madam Speaker, on behalf of the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs and Defence, I commend this Report to Parliament. HON. SPEAKER.- Thank you, please, hand the Report to the Secretary-General. (Report handed to the Secretary-General) HON. LT. COL. N. RIKA.- Madam Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order 121(5), I hereby move: A motion without Notice that a debate of the content of the Report is initiated at a future sitting. HON. H.R.T.

After eight long years of waiting, Ele Opeloge was awarded the silver medal which she rightfully deserved from the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. The first World Youth Champion from the region was Eileen Cikamatana from Fiji winning gold in the 69kg in the clean & jerk in Penang. Silver medal went to Kiana Elliot from Australia with a world class performance at the World Junior Championships in Georgia – our 15 lifters from 11 countries did a great job at the Rio Olympic Games. The performance in Rio by our two 62kg category lifters – Morea Baru from PNG and Nevo Ioane from Samoa – was brilliant. These are only some of the achievements of the OWF during 2016: The magnificent technical seminar held in Suva, upgraded 16 technical officials from the Pacific Islands to international category two level. The outstanding Oceania Championships and Olympic Qualification event was held in Suva, Fiji. And also the extraordinarily successful OTIP program and subsequent OTIP training camp in New Caledonia. It gives us immense pride and satisfaction in highlighting the OWF achievements for this year: FEBRUARY 2016 – EMAIL PACIFIC ISLANDS TOURNAMENT The 2016 Pacific Islands Email tournament turned out to be another great success.

Athletes’ success is built on the three or four years of preparation prior to these events, and is made possible by ongoing funding support that enables us to prepare for the build up to major regional and international competitions. A new Division I am pleased to announce that there is now a new Central- Urban Division for the Sports Commission. This arose out of our realisation that many of the people we have worked with in rural outreach programs have now relocated in Suva city. The Commission recognised its responsibility towards these people, particularly the youth, who contribute considerably to the growing numbers moving from rural to urban areas.
