  • The Ministry of Mineral Resources (DMR) acknowledged receipt of correspondence dated 6 April 2011 from the Centre for Environmental Rights and 13 non-governmental organisations concerning the review of the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act (MPRDA), specifically regarding the environmental regulation of mining, exploration, reconnaissance, and prospecting.
  • The DMR stated that the review process for the MPRDA is at an advanced stage, but noted that a subsequent parliamentary process will allow for public participation, stakeholder consultations, and the solicitation of public comments on a draft review by Cabinet.
  • The Ministry indicated that while the inputs provided were welcomed and viewed in the context of creating an environmentally friendly mining industry in South Africa, the most suitable time for these considerations to be addressed would be during the Parliamentary due processes.
