Request for Tender: Redevelopment Plan for Ministry Offices for Solomon Islands Governement Annex 1: Scope of Services Scope of Services – CONCEPT PAPER: Staged Redevelopment Plan for Ministry Offices for the Solomon Islands Government Background The Solomon Islands Government comprises 23 Ministries, each of which is supported by offices and other workspaces with public servants to carry out the mandated roles of these Ministries. Approximately 6,400 public servants are based in Honiara1. Originally, the Ministries were all located on government-owned land, with headquarters mainly in the Point Cruz area of Honiara. As time went on, many of these Ministries outgrew their limited floor spaces, and the supply of government land likewise diminished. Many Ministries have partially or entirely relocated their headquarters to privately rented office space, and some Ministries are now physically fragmented due to the unavailability of sufficient office space for entire Ministries. The Solomon Islands Government is spending almost $30 million2 per year on private office and warehouse rentals rather than constructing sufficient office space on government-owned land. The first 100 days policy of the Democratic Coalition Government for Advancement (DCGA) government led by Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare lists “transforming and modernisation of Honiara City and Provincial capitals through PPP financing” as one of the priorities of the Office of the Prime Minister and Cabinet. The redevelopment of government offices in Honiara will be a key element to achieve this goal for the national capital. Purpose The government’s intention and main objective for a staged redevelopment plan is to; 1) systematically re-consolidate most national government offices from their current fragmented locations into more central locations on government-owned land in and near the Honiara Central Business District (CBD) at Point Cruz and to also assess current offices of ministries that have permanent locations outside the immediate CBD area with regards to their future plans, appropriateness of current locations in relation to future growth. 2) incorporate new headquarters for several government Ministries and also permanent offices for several other entities including the Parliamentary Entitlements

  • PATHS in the JUNGLE Landowners and the Struggle for Control of Solomon Islands' Logging Industry
    PATHS IN THE JUNGLE Landowners and the Struggle for Control of Solomon Islands' Logging Industry Tarcisius Tara Kabutaulaka A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The Australian National University Canberra 2001 194 Chapter Seven REFORMS IN THE LOGGING INDUSTRY Because of the nature of developments in the Solomon Islands logging industry in the past two decades, there have been concerted efforts, especially in the 1990s, to push for reforms in forestry policies, and legislation, and in the way the administrative structures are organised. Such reforms, it was envisaged, would enable the government to better regulate the industry's operations and ensure that Solomon Islander landowners obtain greater control over the industry and more benefit from it. It is assumed, in other words, that reforms will produce an environment where landowners may participate more effectively and that this will produce better logging outcomes. But, has this been the case? Has reform produced an environment for more effective landowner participation and control of the logging industry? Has reform merely increased the capacity of the state and not necessarily that of landowners? What are the likely outcomes of these reform initiatives? These are some of the questions that this chapter seeks to answer. The chapter examines two of the major reform initiatives currently being implemented: the AusAID-funded Solomon Islands Forest Management Project (SIFMP) and the Forestry Act 1999. The objective of the chapter is to evaluate how forestry reforms affect the participation of customary landowners and their control over the logging industry. The chapter is divided into four parts.

June, 2009 i A DECLARATION I, Lincy Pende, declare that this thesis is an original piece of work done by me. Where other sources have been used, these have been duly acknowledged. Any omission and error or otherwise is my own and the main content of this thesis has not previously submitted for any degree in any other University. ………………… Lincy Pende Date: A Statement by Supervisor I hereby confirm that the work contained in this thesis is of Lincy Pende unless otherwise acknowledged. ………………………. Dr. Manoranjan Mohanty Date: ii ABSTRACT Urbanisation is an inevitable process of development in developing countries. It presents both challenges and opportunities. In most of the developing countries however, the rate of urban growth outstretches the abilities of cities to cope. The urban growth put pressure on civic authorities, making them under-resourced in providing basic urban services at adequate levels. Consequently, cities and towns have become centers of more problems rather than opportunities for progress. The present study aims to investigate the impact of urban growth on the provision of water-supply and sanitation services in Honiara City. The study is underpinned by the key proposition that rapid urban growth has adverse impact on water and sanitation services.
