SINGAPORE: Three companies that received notices from the National Environment Agency (NEA) under the Transboundary Haze Pollution Act on Friday (Oct 23) have said they will comply with requests for documents and information.

Wilmar International, First Resources and Bumitama Agri were among 10 Singapore-registered firms served notices as part of NEA's efforts to address transboundary haze pollution, marking the first time the agency has done so since the Act took effect.

In a filing on Saturday, First Resources said it was reviewing the notice and “will provide the requested documents and information to NEA in accordance with the requirements set out therein”.

First Resources also said it would monitor the matter and make further announcements where appropriate if there were material developments.

Both said they would make further announcements if there were material developments. The 10 firms are required to furnish NEA with information about their links with associated companies in Singapore and Indonesia, the locations of their land concessions, and their fire prevention measures and any firefighting efforts during the dry season. The seven other companies that received notices on Friday were: Asia Pulp & Paper (APP) Company Asia Pulp & Paper Company (China) Golden Agri International Indofood Agri Resources Kencana Agri TSH Global Plantation TSH Oversea They had not responded to CNA’s requests for comment sent on Friday. All 10 Singapore-registered companies are in the palm oil or forestry business and own land concessions in Indonesia or have related companies with such land concessions, NEA said. Before Friday, NEA had only issued notices to companies not listed on the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority's BizFile portal. NEA’s latest move follows Senior Minister K Shanmugam’s warning that Singapore would use every legal, regulatory and economic lever at its disposal against companies responsible for the haze. Several of the firms served with notices on Friday had already been questioned by the Singapore Exchange (SGX) or flagged by non-profit organisations in recent weeks. SGX had sent queries to Bumitama Agri, Golden Agri-Resources, First Resources, Kencana Agri, Wilmar International, Indofood Agri Resources and TSH Resources. Queries were also sent to TSH Resources, which owns TSH Global Plantation and TSH Oversea. Earlier this week, the Singapore Environment Council (SEC) said APP, an Indonesian paper firm that is registered in Singapore, has been placed under temporary green certification restrictions after three of its wood-fibre suppliers were linked to fires in Indonesia that caused haze. APP is required to make daily fire response reports and will be subject to strict monitoring to ensure effective fire prevention and suppression for the land areas managed by its suppliers.

Wilmar said in a filing on Friday that work was underway to comply with its notice, while Bumitama said on Saturday that it would provide the requested documents and information. Both said they would make further announcements if there were material developments.

新加坡国家环境局（NEA）于周五（10月23日）向10家新加坡注册公司发出通知，要求其提供文件和信息，以应对跨境雾霾污染问题。

这段音频由人工智能工具生成。

新加坡：三家公司于周五（10 月 23 日）收到国家环境局 (NEA) 根据《跨境烟霾污染法》发出的通知，这些公司表示将配合提供文件和信息的要求。

丰益国际、第一资源和 Bumitama Agri 等 10 家在新加坡注册的公司收到了通知，这是新加坡国家环境局 (NEA) 为解决跨境雾霾污染而采取的措施之一，也是该机构自该法案生效以来首次采取此类行动。

第一资源公司周六提交的文件显示，该公司正在审查该通知，并将“按照通知中规定的要求向国家能源管理局提供所要求的文件和信息”。

第一资源公司还表示，将密切关注事态发展，如有重大进展，将酌情发布进一步公告。

CNA游戏 猜词游戏 逐行破解单词 流行词游戏 用给定字母造词 迷你数独 小谜题，脑力挑战 迷你填字游戏 小方格，大挑战 单词搜索 尽可能多地找到单词 显示更多 显示更少 丰益国际（Wilmar）周五在一份文件中表示，正在努力遵守通知要求，而Bumitama周六表示，将提供所需文件和信息。两家公司均表示，如有重大进展，将另行发布公告。这10家公司被要求向新加坡国家环境局（NEA）提供其与新加坡和印尼关联公司的关系、土地特许权的所在地，以及在旱季的防火措施和任何灭火工作的信息。周五收到通知的其他七家公司是：亚洲浆纸业（APP）公司、亚洲浆纸业（中国）公司、金光农业国际、印尼食品农业资源公司、肯卡纳农业公司、TSH全球种植园公司和TSH海外公司。它们均未回复CNA周五发出的置评请求。新加坡国家环境局（NEA）表示，这10家在新加坡注册的公司均从事棕榈油或林业业务，并在印尼拥有土地特许权，或其关联公司拥有此类土地特许权。此前，NEA仅向未在新加坡会计与企业管制局（ACRA）BizFile门户网站上注册的公司发出通知。NEA的最新举措是响应国务资政尚穆根的警告，即新加坡将动用一切法律、监管和经济手段，追究造成雾霾的公司的责任。周五收到通知的几家公司此前已受到新加坡交易所（SGX）的质询，或被非营利组织提及。SGX已向Bumitama Agri、Golden Agri-Resources、First Resources、Kencana Agri、Wilmar International、Indofood Agri Resources和TSH Resources发出质询。TSH Resources旗下拥有TSH Global Plantation和TSH Oversea，也收到了质询。本周早些时候，新加坡环境理事会（SEC）表示，印尼造纸公司APP（在新加坡注册）的三家木纤维供应商与印尼造成雾霾的火灾有关，因此该公司已被暂时置于绿色认证限制之下。APP被要求每日提交火灾应对报告，并将接受严格监管，以确保其供应商管理的土地区域得到有效的防火和灭火措施。

丰益国际（Wilmar）周五提交的文件显示，公司正在采取措施以符合通知要求；武米塔玛（Bumitama）周六表示，将提供所需文件和信息。两家公司均表示，如有重大进展，将另行发布公告。

这 10 家公司须向新加坡国家环境局提供有关其与新加坡和印度尼西亚关联公司的关系、其土地特许权的地点、以及其在旱季的防火措施和任何灭火工作的信息。

周五收到通知的其他七家公司是：

亚洲浆纸业（APP）公司

亚洲浆纸业公司（中国）

金农国际

印尼食品农业资源

TSH全球种植园

他们没有回复中央社周五发出的置评请求。

新加坡国家环境局表示，这 10 家在新加坡注册的公司都从事棕榈油或林业业务，并在印度尼西亚拥有土地特许权，或者拥有与印度尼西亚有土地特许权相关的公司。

在周五之前，国家环境局只向未在会计和企业监管局的BizFile门户网站上列出的公司发出通知。

新加坡国家环境局的最新举措，是继高级部长尚穆根警告称新加坡将动用一切法律、监管和经济手段来对付造成雾霾的公司之后采取的。

周五收到通知的几家公司，此前几周都曾受到新加坡交易所 (SGX) 的质询，或被非营利组织点名批评。

新加坡交易所曾向 Bumitama Agri、Golden Agri-Resources、First Resources、Kencana Agri、Wilmar International、Indofood Agri Resources 和 TSH Resources 发出询价。

我们也向拥有 TSH Global Plantation 和 TSH Overseas 的 TSH Resources 发送了问询。

本周早些时候，新加坡环境理事会（SEC）表示，在新加坡注册的印尼造纸公司APP的三家木纤维供应商与印尼造成雾霾的火灾有关，因此该公司已被暂时限制获得绿色认证。

APP 需要每日提交火灾响应报告，并将受到严格监控，以确保其供应商管理的土地区域得到有效的防火和扑灭。
