New Bill pressures mines to comply with water regulations

In a release published in May by law firm Webber Wentzel partner Kirsty Kilner and senior associate Tendai Bonga it is said that the pressure on South African mining companies to raise their standards of environmental, social and corporate governance behaviour is expected to gain momentum this year. This has been ascribed to the long-awaited parliamentary approval of the National Environmental Management Amendment Bill (NEMLAA4).
