Vanuatu extraordinary parliament sitting deferred

Vanuatu's first extraordinary parliament sitting for 2023 has been adjourned to Friday.

Parliament was scheduled for a special sitting on Tuesday to debate and approve the national budget.

RNZ Pacific reports Speaker Simeon Seoule was forced to postpone the session as several MPs remain stranded in their constituencies following back-to-back cyclones last week.

Meanwhile, Air Vanuatu has resumed its domestic flight services.
