CCUS bill not needed for Sabah and Sarawak, says Kitingan


KOTA KINABALU: The proposed Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) Bill is not necessary for Sabah and Sarawak, as these two states have separate land and forestry laws, says Datuk Seri Dr Jeffrey Kitingan (pic).

The Sabah Deputy Minister said the CCUS, which is expected to be tabled in Parliament later this year, does not apply to the Borneo States and should not cover Sabah and Sarawak.
