Negotiations between the government and New Zealand Aluminium Smelters which is owned by Rio Tinto have entered rocky territory, with frustration boiling over at the lack of information being provided by the owners of the Tiwai Point plant in Southland.
Finance Minister Grant Robertson has written to Rio Tinto to say the government has suspended talks with the company until it commits to a high standard of remediation ahead of the Bluff plant shutting down in 2024.
Rio Tinto has previously told RNZ it would conduct a study of how to close Tiwai Point in a responsible manner, with input from independent scientists.
