Checklist – Use of Natural Resources
HOW TO GET THE BEST OUT OF THIS CHECKLIST
This is a checklist of the things that should be taken into account when considering the use of natural resources. It allows businesses to assess how well they are meeting a number of key requirements, grouped together under broad subject headings.
Each requirement is presented as a statement (with its legal necessity shown in brackets afterwards). For each requirement, simply click on the left-hand tab that most accurately reflects your current position.
On a laptop or desktop computer, leaving your answers open will allow you to print and save your results at the end of the checklist. This facility is not available on mobile devices.
