The Solomon Islands and New Zealand Governments have begun consultations on their commitment to the development relationship between the two countries in Honiara.

A statement from the New Zealand High Commission says the consultations was opened by the Minister of Development Planning and Aid Coordination Danny Philip yesterday.

Meanwhile, Permanent Secretary for Development Planning and Aid Coordination Shadrach Fanega said the consultation is a cornerstone in the development relationship which the Government shares with New Zealand.
