Minister for Local Government, Urban Development, Housing and Environment, Honourable Praveen Kumar, visited the National Fire Authority (NFA) today.

The Minister visited the NFA Headquarters at Walu Bay, Suva and met with the NFA Board, Management and the Staff.

The Board, Management and Staff of NFA traditionally welcomed the Honourable Minister since it was his first visit to NFA as the Minister responsible for the NFA.

The Minister was later briefed on the activities of NFA for 2014 and for next five years.

While, the Honourable Minister, thanked the Board, Management and the NFA Staff for the reforms already undertaken, he reminded the staff that the journey was just starting and that the NFA must continue to change and continue to uplift their standard of service since the Government is focused on the delivery and effective service to NFA.

The Honourable Minister also urged the Board and Management to review NFA strategies and align these strategies to the implementation of Government policies, since Government is committed to delivering all their polices to all Fijians.
