Response to the DEFRA Consultation: Due diligence on forest risk commodities

In September 2020, the UK government held a 6-week consultation about its proposals for due diligence legislation on forest risk commodities. This followed the publication in March 2020 of the Recommendations Report from the independent Taskforce for the UK’s Global Resource Initiative (GRI). Feedback’s response focused on expanding the scope of the proposed new due diligence law, and in underscoring the recommendations of the GRI.
