The Court of Appeal today dismissed an appeal by three individuals challenging the then Pakatan Harapan cabinet’s decision to grant Lynas Malaysia Sdn Bhd an extension of licence in 2019 to operate its rare earth processing facility.
There have been discrepancies between statements issued by Nuklear Malaysia and the government on Lynas Malaysia’s thorium extraction plans, said three DAP lawmakers today.
Several lawmakers have questioned the Science, Technology, and Innovation Ministry over its decision to extend the operating licence of Lynas Malaysia’s rare earth processing plant.
Lynas Malaysia Sdn Bhd today withdrew its applications for judicial review of the government's decision on its operating licence conditions, which prohibit the import and processing of lanthanide concentrate after January 1, 2024.
