New FRU constitution to be set in May or June 2024 - FRU Administrator

6 constitutions in the Rugby House since 1997, only one legally registered – Mazey

Fiji Rugby Union Interim Chair Peter Mazey has revealed that they found six constitutions in the Rugby House, with only one legally registered.

While speaking to the media after the FRU Trustees held a talanoa session with the unions, Mazey says one of the biggest things they found out was that the Solicitor-General could not find a constitution that was legal.

He says they found six constitutions since 1997, and none of them had been properly registered.

FRU Administrator Simione Valenitabua elaborated that the 1997 constitution is the only registered one that complies with the Charitable Trust Act.

He says all the five after 1997 were not registered legally, so FRU is still a charitable trust.

Valenitabua says they are trying to have one constitution apply to two entities, the company that was formed and the charitable trust - that is the irregularity that they are trying to fix now.

He adds that is why they need four to five months to revisit the constitution, amend it and do a new one.

The FRU Administrator says the new constitution will determine the way forward for the FRU.
