Rodrigues forms an integral part in the overall strategy of the NPCC. Special consideration has been given to Rodrigues by the NPCC in the Strategic Plan 2016-2019. In view of the need of improving productivity and quality in Rodrigues to boost economic growth, the NPCC collaborated with the Rodrigues Regional Assembly (RRA) to formulate a “Strategic Action Plan to enhance productivity and competitiveness in Rodrigues” with the support of the relevant stakeholders. These included representatives from the public and private sector, trade unions, nongovernmental and community-based organisations of Rodrigues. A Productivity Committee (PC) was set up in Rodrigues to oversee and coordinate the overall execution of the strategic plan. The Chairperson of the Rodrigues Productivity Committee is a co-opted member in the NPCC.
Almost every project initiated by the NPCC covers Rodrigues, which has witnessed a significant rise in the number of economic activities. Besides, social life in Rodrigues has also seen an uplift which has further motivated the NPCC to further extend its focus to the island.
Right from the NPCC's beginning in the year 2000, the Council has continuously been implementing projects in Rodrigues. The very first Productivity Committee in Rodrigues was set up in December 2000. This productivity committee coordinated all the activities of the NPCC on the island and constituted six sub committees that involved a total of 115 persons from the public and private sectors, trade unions and Non-Governmental Organisations.
