Vanuatu Ministry of Agriculture, Quarantine, Forestry & Fisheries (MAQFF) : Corporate plan: 2007 - 2009

The Ministry of Agriculture, Quarantine, Forestry and Fisheries (MAQFF) is mandated to manage resources that are vital to the well-being of Vanuatu people and the economy. The structure of the Ministry is shown in Attachment 1. Government is mindful that where there are no sustainable management practices, resources are overexploited and much to the disadvantage of local communities and the environment. This is witnessed the world over and is becoming evident with some resources in the islands of Vanuatu. Consequently, over the next three years the Ministry will ensure that, through informed development, management practices and conservation of resources, Ni-Vanuatu will increase their gain from the use of resources and take advantage of new opportunities, such as in local business and international trade. Furthermore, there are competing interests in the utilization of resources from all sectors. The MAQFF is charged with the task of ensuring that the interests of Government. Ni- Vanuatu. private sector and stakeholders are taken into consideration.
