Bangladesh: stay of execution for Hazaribagh

02/09/2016
Sources in Bangladesh have told World Leather that the government there will allow leather producers to continue tanning at the old Hazaribagh site near Dhaka because the common effluent treatment plant at the new Savar site is not ready. Indications are that production will continue at Hazaribagh until the end of 2016.

Separately, leather industry workers have also said they are unhappy over the security, accommodation and medical facilities at Savar and have asked the government to set up appropriate facilities.
