Proposed Legislative Changes in Tanzania
Capital Drilling Limited (CAPD:LN), a leading drilling solutions
company focused on emerging and developing markets, notes the
recent publication of draft legislation in Tanzania which
recommends changes to the legal framework governing the natural
resources sector, which is to be debated in the Dar es Salaam
Parliament this week. Though the suggested changes to the
legislation are principally focused on mining groups and the
percentage of local ownership, this legislation also includes
suppliers for goods and services to the mining industry in
Tanzania. Though the Company's Tanzanian subsidiary, Capital
Drilling (T) Ltd, Tanzania, is a 100% Tanzanian company by law, the
Company is monitoring the situation closely and will update
shareholders in the event there are any potential risks to the
Company's business in that country.
