The Ministry of Education of Fiji is on track to deliver the free milk to Year One students Fiji-wide by the end of the month.
Minister Mahendra Reddy has reassured the public that they would deliver on their promise to provide Year One students with free 250-millilitre milk packs this year.
The free milk initiative was originally part of the FijiFirst party manifesto during the general elections in September last year.
Mr Reddy said: “There are a few problems in getting the programme rolled out because of Fiji’s geographical make-up and the supply logistics.”
However, he said despite these obstacles the Ministry was on track and would deliver the milk packs by the third week of this month.
