Rarotonga Treaty

PNG still subscribes to Rarotonga Treaty: Marape

When posed questions regarding Japan’s dumping of nuclear waste water by Vanimo Green MP Belden Namah, the Prime Minister assured that the government of PNG does not want nuclear discharge in its waters.

“My statement was misplaced in a sense that there’s no unilateral clearance for them (Japan) to discharge any nuclear waste but it was stated that the test done, if it proved that it is compliant with the highest test ever and the discharge is clean and safe for discharge then they can discharge into the water.”
