Following the devastating events of cyclone Heta in the opening weeks of this year (05 January 2004) there have been some noticeable observations of the changes to the number and settlement of the population of Niue. There was movement of people to and from overseas as well as from one village to another, more so the most affected coastal villages from Hikutavake to Avatele. In order to know the true picture of these movements and changes the national statistics office of the Government of Niue was tasked with the exercise to conduct a comprehensive “Population Head Count of Niue”. The objectives of this exercise was seen as: • To determine the total population of Niue and at the same time re-establish the nominal roll of all people living in Niue and where they are at a certain point in time to be used in estimating the population during that period; • To record the changes and update the appropriate information (Population and Households Census 2001 and the compilation of the National Accounts) contained in the department to reflect; • To serve as a data source for the electoral rolls, planning for school rolls, and social policy in general; and • To be used in times of emergencies such as cyclones as a “guiding roll” of residents or occupiers of the households in each villages.

  • “Niue Foou- a New Niue”
    Government of Niue “Niue Foou- A New Niue” Cyclone Heta Recovery Plan April 2004 Economic, Planning, Development and Statistics Premier’s Department Government of Niue 2004 FOREWORD Fakaalofa hofihofi atu and warm greetings. Cyclone Heta dealt Niue a severe blow and it will take years to fully recover from the devastation that it left behind. However, it also provided the opportunity to take stock of where we are at as a country and to rebuild in a manner that better equips us to face the challenges of the 21st century. Immediate post cyclone response concentrated on re-establishing essential services and getting a roof over peoples’ heads. We must now move on to rebuilding our economy. This involves providing assistance to business to get operational again, ensuring that primary producers can replant without delay and replacing accommodation for government services such as Court House, Library and Cultural Centre. We also have to attract tourists again and make sure they have somewhere to stay and activities they can enjoy during their visit. Last year we prepared the Niue Integrated Strategic Plan for 2003-2005, ‘Halavaka ke he Monuina’ or ‘Prosperous Niue’. The vision set out in that plan has not altered. The opportunity provided by Cyclone Heta has meant however, that we will have to alter some of the strategies and priorities to achieve the goals set out in that plan. That is why we have prepared this Cyclone Heta Recovery Plan. It combines the necessary Heta recovery actions with our National Strategic Objectives. In doing so, it provides the people of Niue with a clear and shared understanding of the path the government intends to follow in getting the country back on a sound economic footing.

Nearly all of the islands have limited physical resources and limited economic opportunities for their inhabitants. Because of these limitations some islands have a pattern of an outward flow of people from their home islands to more populous areas with greater economic opportunities. Among such islands are Rotuma, the Lau Islands, the Tokelau Islands, the Cook Islands, the Tuamotu Islands, and the Samoa s.
