State Successfully Concludes Pre-CDA Meetings

The State Team working on the Community Development Agreement (CDA) for the Porgera Project, today (Friday 9 Feb) completed a two-days pre-CDA meeting.

The meeting held in Mt Hagen, involved the 25 Special Mining Lease (SML) landowner agents, and Ward Councillors of the Porgera Rural Local Level Government, which hosts the Porgera Mining project.

The purpose of the meeting was to provide the State’s response to benefits, proposed in position papers by these stakeholders, and submitted to the State last year in Alotau and Wabag. The State has already responded to position papers from the Enga Provincial Government (EPG). Position papers are documentation that capture landowner’s, Provincial Government’s and other stakeholders’ development aspirations and benefits.
