Feedback

More May feedback:

Isn't it time this Act was reviewed.I would be surprised if there is any Act in this country that has not had a review in 50+ years
This feedback must be in relation to the all-powerful Comalco Act, which will in fact change - in parts - in three years time. Rio will have to conform to the new EPA standards that Chalco has to perform under.

Except when it comes to Rio's 80% water rights of all water-courses. Which - in my understanding - aren't covered under the new guidelines and are probably considered a company asset.

Maybe there will be a flurry of activity during the next three years - you know - the odd tailings dam expansion, new mine development ...
