New Customs Website launched 28 September 2011
PNG Customs today launched its new rebranded website, rebuilt from the ground up with the help of feedback from staff and key stakeholders.
At the launch ceremony today Commissioner of Customs, Mr Gary Juffa, said the key focus had been on improving the website content to help our clients and key stakeholders better understand Customs role and legislative requirements enabling enhanced compliance levels.
"The website contains a wide variety of information such as current legislation, policies, forms, facts sheets and procedures," the Commissioner said. "We have also included some of our most recent publications such as our 2010-2012 Service Plan, 2010 Annual Report and the recently produced Risk Management Strategy. The website also allows the public to provide feedback on how Customs is performing,"
"I am proud of the work Customs is doing and the new website provides a forum for the public to see this too. This is a small but very important event for us. It is the celebratory portion of it as the website actually went on live about three days ago and I would like to thank the website designer Wolfgang Brandish, SGP Advisor Ellen Brophy, Acting Deputy Commissioner Commercial and Corporate Ray Paul and all of the officers who came together to work on it", the Commissioner added.
"The website also presents the annual report which details everything Customs has done in 2010, the money that we have received and what we have done with that money. Its public information and must be made available to the people so that they know what is happening in this Department with their money. It is a requirement under the Public Service Management Act that every Government department must present an annual report so we are complying with that. Every year we are going to produce an annual report and it will go on the website."
