WP raises adjournment motion on Singapore’s response to haze

“She's talked about increasing traceability and sustainability of the supply chains and the visibility and accountability of the fires and the businesses that are responsible. We agree,” said Senior Minister of State for Sustainability and the Environment Janil Puthucheary in response to suggestions by Workers’ Party MP He Ting Ru to combat transboundary haze. Speaking during an adjournment motion in Parliament on Monday (Nov 2), Ms He, who is MP for Sengkang GRC, proposed stronger traceability requirements and financing conditions for businesses.   “We should use our financial institutions through disclosure rules, covenants and information undertakings to ensure that financing through syndicated loans or money market instruments are only made available to responsible businesses and set the standards here in Singapore,” she said. #sgnews #haze Subscribe to our channel here: https://cna.asia/youtubesub Visit our website: https://cna.asia Download our app: https://cna.asia/app Get our editors' picks of stories via chat apps: Telegram: https://cna.asia/telegram WhatsApp: https://cna.asia/whatsapp Follow us on these platforms: https://www.facebook.com/channelnewsasia https://www.instagram.com/channelnewsasia https://www.tiktok.com/@channelnewsasia
