We will look into the need to set up a one-stop centre to ensure the safety and control of REE. “We will follow the federal guidelines and standard operating procedures as well as the Perak government’s way of implementing REE mining. We will also detail the SOP at the state level before the end of this year,” he said after chairing the state executive council meeting here today.
