Submissions

A dedicated portal was created for the final public consultation process, allowing respondents to share their views on the draft Consolidated Standard, Assurance Process, and Claims Policy.

When submitting feedback, consultees were asked whether they granted CMSI permission to disclose their feedback with their name and organisation attributed, to disclose their feedback anonymously or to keep their feedback confidential. Below are all verbatim submissions from those who consented to their feedback being disclosed, either with attribution or anonymously. 

Feedback received during the final public consultation will guide updates to the Consolidated Standard, Assurance Process, and Claims Policy. Over the coming months, the CMSI Partners will consider all contributions as we advance the Consolidated Standard, Assurance Process, and Claims Policy towards finalisation.

CMSI Data Protection

All responses received were processed by Environmental Resources Management, Inc. (ERM) on behalf of the Consolidated Mining Standard Initiative (CMSI) for the purpose of creating the Final Consultation Report, summarising the feedback on the draft Consolidated Standard, Assurance Process, and Claims Policy. The CMSI team had access to all responses submitted via the portal or through alternative channels (e.g. via email). Responses were not used for any other purpose or passed on to any third parties. All responses that have been published were done so with express written consent of the consultee. 

All data was stored securely by ERM which can be contacted via the address below.
