Popular Post webfact Posted August 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 4, 2023 The government has recently issued a new ministerial regulation, requiring all mega projects to undergo a strategic environmental assessment (SEA), on top of the existing environmental impact assessment (EIA) and health impact assessment (HIA), to avoid friction developing between the state or private investors and the people. Under a PM Office ministerial regulation, a 13-member SEA committee will be set up, comprising permanent secretaries from the finance, agriculture, natural resources and environment, energy, interior, public health, industry and social development and human security ministries, with the prime minister as the chair. The main tasks of the committee are to set out policies and guidelines for strategic environmental assessments and the projects that require them and to support and promote the development of SEAs.

Mr Derek Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 So it's an excuse to push ahead on projects which fail the Environmental Impact Assessment. From now on they'll say "look, this project has benefits for the nation" and that will become the official deciding factor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AustinRacing Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 They sure like using big words. Fruits of junkets to developed nations as part of learning programs. When it comes to implementation step they run out of juice like many other initiatives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
