Between the Lines
APPOINTMENT
What could be the delay in announcing the new head of law enforcement? The office has been vacant for four months now. The selection panel must be having a hard time with this one.
DRIVERS
Non-government employees have been seen driving government vehicles. Under the policy, authorised family members can drive vehicles assigned to ministers, but being assigned a separate vehicle altogether is something new.
DRUG TESTS
We are now almost three months into the new year, and there is no word when the drug tests for members of parliament will be done. Would this be done randomly, as they do for athletes?
BRANCHING OUT
A major local investor is soon to launch its new operations in Fiji very soon. The investor has stepped into the indemnity business in the neighbouring country.
GONE
Who is the bureaucrat who was asked to leave the office? A person has been acting in the role for a little over a week now. The contract for the role had expired as well.
CAUTION
Motorists need to exercise caution when passing through landslide-prone areas. There is an advisory out for heavy rain, especially in the highlands.
