Background:

The Mining Division of the Ministry of Lands and Mineral resources is Fiji’s lead agency in attracting private investment in resource exploration and development. The Division provides geoscientific information on minerals resources as well as management of an equitable and secure titles systems for the mining, petroleum and geothermal industries. It also carries prime responsibility for regulating extractive industries in Fiji, including the collection of royalties, and ensuring that safety, health and environmental standards are consistent with relevant regulations. In addition, the Mining Division is committed to educating the community about resource development and regulation in respective resource sectors. It is also focused on delivering key strategies to ensure the continued growth of the resources industry and to maximize the economic and social return to all Fijians. 

The regulation of the mineral sector is provided for under the Mining Act 1965, which had undergone a review process in the late nineties and early 2000 resulting in the development of the Mineral Exploration and Exploitation Bill (MEEB). The MEEB is currently in its eleventh draft which was finalised in 2007. It addresses the outdated mining law of Mining Act 1965, with improved safety, best practise regulation and mining tenement administration. The Bill also reflects the new laws, such as Environment Management Act 2015, Employment Relations Act 2007, Fair Share Mineral Royalties Act 2018 and the Occupational Health and Safety at Workplace Act as well as conventions that Fiji has ratified relevant to the mineral sector (United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification, United Nations Convention on Biodiversity and United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea etc.).  Further input is needed to align the Bill to the 2013 Constitution.
