Meeting regarding Kallak continues Monday
Al. I assumed everyone in Sweden had already had covid
Just announced people arriving from Sweden will have to self isolate from Saturday,
Suzy re Linus post
Don't know where that came from but sure looks good.
We need to put these wasters on the spot.
It was ever thus.... much ado....
Many thanks for your thorough response Suzy, that's all I wanted to know. It explains to me why the SP didn't move despite today's published agenda about the Government's handling of our application so far.
That meeting is probably over for BEM by now, I guess these minutes will be published somewhere / sometime.
Cheers.
Obviously the KU Committee cannot deliver the decision but they can put a spotlight on the ineffectiveness of the permitting process, which the Riksdag will take a dim view of. We know they will because it was debated earlier in the year and all parties want Sweden to be a mining country, all of course except MP, the 4.1% party who seem to be in charge of everything. In answer to your question that's how important it is. The other question doesn't need an answer.
FarEnd...Nobody can know what the outcome of the KU Review will be, we may assume I suppose that the Committee will be critical of the Government, because the Review is after all an investigation into the Government's handling of the application and they (KU)presumably agree with us that grounds exist or they wouldn't have embarked upon it. We have discussed the relevance of the KU Committee's investigation in minute detail on this board...since it began in October last year...it is completely independent of what the Government may or may not be doing in the course of their 'preparation'...few people could continue to believe that the Government have 'prioritised' it and that it is 'forthcoming', which means we need help and it could be that an independent investigation will deliver it. There it is in a nutshell, you'll have to wade back some way to find out more details, to last October. So...you've appealed to my ego, clever little you...lol. Have a nice day, stay safe.
I guess like me you don't then know Suzy.
Still waiting for an indication of the negatives in my original post.
FarEnd...The regurgitated posts from Avanza are posted for discussion for those who are actually interested in what's going on...we can I know all read Avanza. So far as the relevance of the KU Review is concerned...we've discussed it on here many times and if you can't be bothered to take it in then that's your problem.
"FarEnd...Well you thought wrong, maybe you should pay more attention to the facts instead of using every opportunity you can to post a negative remark."
Oh dear Suzy, day 1 of lockdown and already you're on a short fuse, Beowulf does not rule my life.
Where was the negative in my post?
Meanwhile you haven't answered my question, which was -
What exactly is the relevance of this Constitutional Committee to our application, could someone enlightened me, as it does not appear as that important?
Some original thoughts and deductions might be useful instead of the usual regurgitated posts from avanza.
Have a nice day..........if that's possible.
I don't know the full provenance of this letter from Linus...it was posted under the heading Beowulf Mining/Now we have to ask for an answer...sent to politicians in KU and the media yesterday.
"Hello politicians in the Constitution Committee.
13 / 10-2020 was the date when mining in Kallak was to be prepared in your committee. The government would then answer questions regarding why the processing concession is delayed for the company that applied for mining in Kallak. This is because the company has been granted a processing concession with Bergstaten but where the County Administrative Board has said no. The government must then make a decision as a last resort.
However, the Kallak case was postponed to the Constitution Committee. The government with responsible Minister of Trade and Industry Baylan would return with answers. The answers were submitted on 27 / 10-2020. It was written there that the case is complicated and that it is being prepared and that Unesco should be consulted to obtain more information.
What is extremely strange is that the government has had the matter on its table since 2017 and Unesco has been mentioned as a party before. If the government cannot make a decision, as there is probably a conflict of interest between the Social Democrats and the environmental parties, then the constitutional committee should come to the conclusion that the government actually needs to make a decision. This is due to lateness and the fact that the government does not act independently of the facts set out in the submissions and opinions.
According to Section 9 of the Public Administration Act, authorities must act simply, expeditiously and cost-effectively without compromising legal certainty. This should also apply to the government as a representative of society at large. The Kallak case obviously needs to be examined.
Issues constitutional committee may ask the responsible minster when he earlier and even now leaves standardized responses and to work concerning mining Kallak are tardy are:
- Why are prompted UNESCO in this position and not before, when the issue was already raised in the context when the government got Kallak case on his table?
- Is the actual reason for the late preparation a conflict between the Green Party and the Social Democrats? In a state governed by the rule of law, this should not be a reason why a processing concession is not granted.
- If the government plans to procure more opinions. When can these parties have a deadline to respond?
- When can the government set an end date for when the preparation of mining in Kallak is complete, as a decision should already have been made when the submissions were submitted already in 2017 !?
Regards Linus. "

Oops, double post syndrome, sorry.
I thought this 5th November agenda was the immediate government business of the day.
Couldn't understand why the SP (over the North sea) hadn't moved.
I see it is a review of the Constitutional Committee which I guess by the apathy shown in the share price today is no big deal.
