The Recognised Seasonal Employers Scheme (RSE)

Under this scheme, employers can apply for RSE status and then apply to fill vacant seasonal positions for which there are no New Zealand applicants.

The purpose of this Country Strategy Paper (CSP) is to provide a framework for EC co-operation with Vanuatu under the Cotonou Agreement. The framework is based on global objectives of EC-ACP co-operation, Vanuatu’s own development policy, an analysis of the political and economic situation in the country, and an assessment of the past co-operation programmes of the EC and other donors. It concludes with the proposed EC response strategy of the 10th EDF and a National Indicative Programme (NIP).
