The Pacific Advisory Group, established in December 2003, is a link between the Council and Wellington's Pacific communities. It is designed to have representatives from Wellington's seven main Pacific nation groups - Cook Islands, Fiji, Niue, Samoa, Tokelau, Tuvalu and Tonga. The group's role is to: - facilitate consultation with Pacific communities
- help Pacific communities understand Council processes
- enable Pacific peoples to participate in the Councils decision-making processes
- help the Council understand the needs of Pacific communities and how these may be resolved.
