content: The South Pacific Commission is an advisory and consultative body set up by the six governments responsible for the administration of the island territories in the South Pacific region.  Its purpose is to recommend to members the means of promoting well being of the native peoples.  The headquarters is at Noumea, New Caledonia.  The 12 members, 2 for each government, represent Australia, France, Netherlands, New Zealand, United Kingdom, and the U.S.

The Quarterly Bulletin contains articles in the three main areas of interest to the Commission --economic development, health and social development.  They often comment on the projects discussed in the Technical Papers and Social Development Notes of the South Pacific Commission in Series 6.
