May 11, 2022The review of the Environmental Quality Act 1974 (EQA1974) is a project commissioned by KASA. ASM was tasked to identify gaps and provide recommendations to strengthen the existing environmental laws.
The steering committee, led by Academician Professor Emeritus Tan Sri Dr Zakri Abdul Hamid FASc has proposed provisions to address the gaps in the law, weakness in its implementation, transparency, access to information and fragmented environmental governance. This shifts the current environmental management approach from reactive approach to precautionary approach.
The revised Act will be submitted by KASA and ASM to the Attorney General’s Chambers in November 2022.
