Q4. Have the key messages from the documents review been correctly identified in Table 1? If not, what should be added, amended or deleted?

What is missing is any account of what quantities of minerals may be required over the next 15-20 years that the report covers. I suggest this should be fundamental to the report.

In Table 5 the first item is "Ensure that adequate provision is made to meet local and national mineral demand." How can it get a tick in the "economic" box when it is not clear how much will be required?
