Memorandum of Evidence to the Joint Committee on Human Rights [UK]

This memorandum contains four sections: the first addresses gaps in the Protect, Respect and Remedy Framework; the second looks at weaknesses in the regulation of London’s secondary market, the Alternative Investment Market (AIM), and the implications for human rights; the third section comments on the government’s proposals for the self-regulation of private military companies; the fourth section considers the effectiveness of the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises. Recommendations are listed at the end of the Memorandum. [refers to Oryx Natural Resources, Avient Limited, Anvil Mining, Emerging Capital Partners (ECP), DAS Air, Afrimex]
