Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to support the work of the Global Tailings Management Institute.
Answered by
Lord Collins of Highbury
Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office)
The UK strongly welcomed the launch of the Global Tailings Management Institute in Johannesburg earlier this year. The Global Tailings Management Institute was established by the International Council on Mining and Metals, the United Nations Environment Programme and the UN-backed Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) in 2019 to make mine tailings facilities safer. We are considering how best to support the Institute as part of our international approach under the new strategy.
