MANILA, Philippines —The Bureau of Customs (BOC) said on Saturday it will convene government agencies and environmental groups over alleged electronic waste (e-waste) shipments from the United States at the Subic Bay Freeport.
The meeting comes as the case remains under judicial review and on appeal through the Office of the Solicitor General, the bureau said.
“While the case is still under judicial review, it is important to engage with all concerned agencies and stakeholders so that we can more clearly understand the issue, their respective roles, and the laws and regulations that must be followed,” Customs Commissioner Ariel Nepomuceno said in a statement.
