Prime Minister Tuilaepa Lupesoliai Dr. Sailele Malielegaoi, who is also patron of SRWMA, was not aware that the association is lobbying for a levy of this kind until yesterday.
Tuilaepa was informed of the association’s proposal during one of the Side Events to the Mid-Term Review of the Samoa Pathway meeting taking place at the TATTE Convention Center this week.
In his key note address to launch the associations 2018-2013 Strategic Plan, Tuilaepa if he had known that the association wanted a recycling fee or levy six months ago, it would have been law by today.
