Submission: Upstream Petroleum Resources Development Bill (South Africa)

In July 2022, Natural Justice made submissions on the Upstream Petroleum Resources Development (UPRD) Bill to the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy. The purpose of the Bill is to govern various aspects of the use and development of Petroleum resources and products in South Africa.

Our submission focused on twenty-five aspects of the Bill, looking more closely at how the Bill will impact communities and whether it addresses our climate change commitments to reduce our carbon emissions.
