Maritime Safety Authority of Fiji has deployed additional staff to its Nabouwalu Office as part of their disaster response post Cyclone Yasa.

MSAF Chief Executive Officer Simon Gravenall says their staff had to go above and beyond to ensure relief supplies reached every Fijian affected by the cyclone as soon as possible.

He says they have had an increase in shipping tempo over the normally busy Christmas period in addition to cyclone response teams and repair personnel.

MSAF staff in Nabouwalu are also preparing to receive the HMAS Adelaide which is Australia's largest Navy Ship.

More than 600 Australian Defence Forces personnel are on board the ship with humanitarian supplies to assist in rehabilitation work after TC Yasa.
