MFAT has transferred this request to NZDF. Interesting given that the Minister of Foreign Affairs signed the Cabinet Paper requesting this operation be extended. We shall see.

This request was answered satisfactorily after it was transferred from MFAT to the NZDF. The Defence Cooperation Agreement and letter between the two defence chiefs in NZ and Fiji is a straightforward way of setting out the ground rules for our navy to operate in Fijian waters. I was surprised to learn that members of our contingent have legal jeopardy for offences under Fijian law that are not offences under NZ law. Still none the wiser about how the patrol vessel is 'flagged' when operating on behalf of the Fiji authorities so I'll be asking a simple follow-up question on that. Thanks NZDF and FYI.org.nz.
