Mustapa: International panel to study Lynas plant
An international panel of "independent experts" will be formed to carry out a conclusive study on the safety of the Lynas Advanced Material Plant in Gebeng, Pahang.
International Trade and Industry Minister Mustapa Mohamed said today that the panel will be formed "as soon as possible", and is expected to present its findings within one month from the date it is formed.
Until the panel tables its report, Mustapa said the government will not issue any pre-operating licence to Lynas.
