Niue's government has announced the official results of a referendum to make changes to its constitution.

They show two of the four bills were supported - changing the title of Premier to Prime Minister; and changing the name of the Audit Office to the Auditor General.

These have been signed into effect, meaning Premier Dalton Tagelagi's title is now Prime Minister.

A total of 717 people voted.

RNZ Pacific's Grace Fiavaai spoke with the director for BCN TV Niue, Esther Pavihi.
