The Government’s International Trade Week takes place from 15-19 November, and members are invited to attend a number of events being run by Department for International Trade (DIT).
The AIC has submitted its response to the Government’s consultation entitled Due diligence on forest risk commodities. The consultation considers whether the Government should introduce legislation that would require a ‘small number of larger businesses’ to guarantee that commodities that can be responsible for deforestation have been produced legally, in accordance with relevant, local laws.
