It provides a snapshot of the information collected from the Population Questionnaire and some highlights of the Housing Questionnaire. It also provides the final count of the population of Samoa in November 7th 2016 by statistical regions, political districts and villages. Over the past censuses, the Samoa Bureau of Statistics has compiled a standard analytical report that users and mainly students find it complex and too technical for their purposes. We have changed our approach in the 2016 census by compiling smaller reports (Census Brief reports) to be released on a quarterly basis with emphasis on different areas of Samoa’s development as well as demands from users. In doing that, we look forward to working more collaboratively with our stakeholders and technical partners in compiling relevant, focused and more user friendly statistical brief reports for planning, policy-making and program interventions. At the same time, the Bureau is giving the public the opportunity to select their own data of interest from the census database for printing rather than the Bureau printing numerous tabulations which mostly remain unused. -

The Fisheries Division continued to face challenges to effectively execute its programs set out; as it is in the past with limited budget and high staff turnovers as major constraints. Never the less, the Division managed to achieve above 90% of its set out activities for this fiscal years.

Management Report for Bumphead Parrotfish (Bolbometopon
Management Report for Bumphead Parrotfish (Bolbometopon muricatum) Status Review under the Endangered Species Act: Existing Regulatory Mechanisms (per Endangered Species Act § 4(a)(1)(D), 16 U.S.C. § 1533(a)(1)(D)) and Conservation Efforts (per Endangered Species Act § 4(b)(1)(A), 16 U.S.C. § 1533(b)(1)(A)) September 2012 Bumphead parrotfish for sale in market, Aceh, Indonesia (photo provided by Crispen Wilson) Pacific Islands Regional Office National Marine Fisheries Service National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Department of Commerce Executive Summary Introduction On January 4, 2010, the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) received a petition from WildEarth Guardians to list bumphead parrotfish (Bolbometopon muricatum) as either threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). In response, NMFS issued a 90-day finding (75 Fed. Reg.16713 (Apr. 2, 2010)), wherein the petition was determined to contain substantial information indicating that listing the species may be warranted. Thus, NMFS initiated a comprehensive status review of bumphead parrotfish, which was completed jointly by our Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center (PIFSC) and Pacific Islands Regional Office (PIRO). PIFSC established a Bumphead Parrotfish Biological Review Team (BRT) to complete a biological report on the status of the species and threats to the species (hereafter “BRT Report”, cited as Kobayashi et al. 2011). PIRO staff completed this report on management activities affecting the species across its range, including existing regulatory mechanisms and non- regulatory conservation efforts (hereafter “Management Report”). The BRT Report and Management Report together constitute the comprehensive bumphead parrotfish status review. The process for determining whether a species should be listed as threatened or endangered is based upon the best scientific and commercial data available and is described in sections 4(a)(1) and 4(b)(1)(A) of the ESA (16 U.S.C. -

As of 23 June 2021 Government of Samoa HRM Policies & Procedures
2021 Version – as of 23 June 2021 Government of Samoa HRM Policies & Procedures FOREWORD This Manual presents the findings, analysis and recommendations following a review of the Samoa Public Service (SPS) Determinations or policies as set out in the existing Working Conditions and Entitlements (WCE) Manual. The review of these policies is part of a broader review of the SPS working conditions and entitlements undertaken by the Public Service Commission, commencing in 2012. In an attempt to include all employees employed under the Public Service Act 2004, the Commission has also included Terms and Conditions of employment for Contract employees in the 2015 WCE Manual to assist Ministries in providing the best advice regarding Human Resource matters to their employees. This manual translates the Public Service Act 2004 and the Public Service Regulations 2008 and all of their amendments in relation to working conditions and entitlements as at January 2015. The conditions and entitlements relate to all employees except where specifically identified. Since issuance of the WCE Manual in 2009, several issues had been identified in relation to employee’s terms and conditions of employment which have warranted a further review of these existing WCE. The purpose of this review was thus, to identify and address areas that Ministries and employees currently find problematic with regard to current WCE, so as to ensure that these not only remain relevant within the current SPS operating context and reflect best practice in terms of human resource management, but that they are also seen to be fair, equitable, and reasonable for employees. At the same time, they must also be affordable for Government.
