Nonprofit organisation Natural Justice in January submitted comments to the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy (DMRE) on the Gas Master Plan Basecase Report, which was released for public comment on Tuesday, December 14, 2021, and developed as a policy instrument for South Africa with the purpose of guiding gas development in the country.
