SUVA - The Fiji interim government has confirmed that the ban of the annual Methodist Church conference will stand for another four years, Fiji media reported on Wednesday.

The ban was first issued in January and a month later it was expanded to also ban the Methodists' divisional and quarterly meetings.
The latest extension came as the Fiji government has said it will ease its emergency rule once a new Media Decree has been released.
The decree is to replace the censorship rules which the regime put in place in April last year.
