Answer

There have been a range of discussions at the Ministerial level about cooperation on port infrastructure in the Pacific since 1 January 2026. Some of these discussions took place in the United States and in New Zealand. Our Embassies and High Commissions also engage with their counterparts regularly on cooperation on port infrastructure in the Pacific region.
