The Australian government has welcomed the completion of Fiji's new draft constitution despite procedural differences between the chairman of the constitutional commission, Professor Yash Ghai and the government.
A spokeswoman for the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade said the draft constitution is a substantial document and another step along the path towards Fiji's return to democracy.
Meanwhile, the Constituent Assembly appointed by the Prime Minister is expected to be announced this week.
The Assembly will deliberate on the draft Document and their work is expected to be completed by late March.
