Lack of building supplies hinders Fiji's rebuild

Fiji's Red Cross says the country's rebuild is being hindered by problems accessing building supplies.

The category five Cyclone Winston caused widespread devastation when it swept through much of the country six months ago.

The director general of the Fiji Red Cross, Filipe Nainoca, says food and water security has largely been restored, but thousands of people are still living in tents.

He told Jamie Tahana accessing building materials has been a challenge that has slowed the rebuild.
