Apple in conflict mineral 'name and shame' crackdown

Apple has begun publicising which of its suppliers may be sourcing minerals from conflict zones.

Conflict minerals, as they are known, are mined in areas of fighting or human rights abuses, such as the Democratic Republic of Congo.

The first published list detailed 104 suppliers that were unverified for compliance with ethical guidelines.

Electronics firms are being pressured by human rights groups to use their influence to force suppliers to change.

Most electronic devices contain either gold, tantalum, tin or tungsten. The gathering of these raw materials is often controlled by violent militias who may profit greatly from the activity.

Greater transparency
"The ethical sourcing of minerals is an important part of our mission to ensure safe and fair working conditions," Apple said in its latest Supplier Responsibility Report, published annually.

"In January 2014 we confirmed that all active, identified tantalum smelters in our supply chain were verified as conflict-free by third party auditors, and we're pushing our suppliers of tin, tungsten, and gold just as hard to use verified sources."

The first published list showed that 59 smelters were compliant with its guidelines.

UK storms: Homes left without power and travel disrupted

Tens of thousands of homes are without power and there is renewed travel disruption after hurricane-force winds battered the UK on Wednesday.

There was some respite on Thursday but forecasters warn that an incoming storm from the Atlantic could be even worse than Wednesday's severe weather.

Sixteen severe flood warnings remain for Berkshire, Surrey and Somerset - all already hit by severe flooding.

Train services in parts of the UK are cancelled and some roads are closed.

It comes after parts of the transport network struggled to cope during Wednesday's severe weather, which closed roads and caused delays and cancellations to rail services.

In the Commons, Transport Secretary Patrick McLoughlin said £61m would be spent to help repair the damage - but Labour said at least £118m was needed for rail repairs alone.

In other developments:

A pensioner thought to have been electrocuted while trying to move a fallen tree which had brought down power cables has been named as Roger Hayward from Bremhill, Wiltshire
A 33-year-old man died in a two-car crash in Macclesfield. Police said they found a tree partially in the road when they arrived at the scene
David Cameron promised further visits to flood-hit communities, ahead of the first meeting of a Cabinet committee on flood recovery
Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg rejected calls for cash to be diverted from the UK's £11bn foreign aid budget to help those affected
Mr McLoughlin told MPs it was "important we ensure the [transport] network is resilient to threats of this nature in future"
Work is beginning to clear debris, fallen trees and other damage caused by 100mph winds that battered Wales
A man was knocked unconscious when he was hit by a fence panel as high winds hit Greater Manchester
A lightning strike has knocked out water supplies to 66 homes in Cornwall
Homes across Staffordshire and Cheshire are still without power

Declaration signed on illegal wildlife trade

Governments from around the world have vowed to take action on the illegal trade in wildlife.

At the conference at Lancaster House in London, delegates from 46 different countries and 11 UN organisations have signed The London Declaration.

This outlines the steps that need to be taken to stop animal poaching, which governments agreed needs to be treated as a serious crime.

The illegal trade in wildlife is worth about $19bn dollars a year.

The London declaration states that investigating the links to corruption and organised crime needs to be made a priority.

The 46 countries have also committed to improving cross border cooperation - and to strengthening laws and policing.

With tens of thousands of rhinos, elephants and tigers being killed each year, these species face a real risk of extinction.

The bulk of poaching takes place in Africa, but much of the demand comes from Asia, where animal products, such as rhino horns, are used in traditional medicine or are bought by the rich as trophies.

Speaking at the conference, the UK's Foreign Secretary William Hague said: "The illegal wildlife trade is a global problem and it matters deeply to all of us gathered here today.

"We need to show the world our political commitment at the highest level across the globe to addressing this before it is to late."

Actions from the meeting include:

Treat wildlife trade as a serious crime within the UN convention against transnational organised crime
Address problems of corruption and money laundering related to wildlife crime with legislation - a zero tolerance policy
Strengthen legal frameworks and help law enforcement
Better cross-agency mechanisms to deal with wildlife crime
Endorsing governments which are destroying wildlife products
Renounce governments which use products from species threatened with extinction
Conservationists broadly welcomed the news, but they say action will be need to be taken quickly.

Heather Sohl, chief species adviser at WWF-UK, said: "Governments signing the London Declaration today sent a strong message: Wildlife crime is a serious crime and it must be stopped.

"This trafficking devastates species populations, but also takes the lives of rangers, impedes countries' economic development and destabilises society by driving corruption."

Dr John G Robinson, chief conservationist at the Wildlife Conservation Society, said the illegal trade involved "well-financed and well-armed syndicates".

He commented: "The declaration calls for governments to crack down on these criminals with stiffer penalties and more aggressive investigation and prosecution, including addressing the corruption and bribery that facilitate these crimes.

"It further calls for addressing this crisis at all points of the supply chain - where the animal is killed, where the parts are trafficked, and where the products are purchased."

Prince Charles and The Duke of Cambridge, Prince William, attended the meeting, hosted by the UK government.

The conference heard from the presidents of Botswana, Chad, Gabon and Tanzania, and the foreign minister of Ethiopia.

President Khama of Botswana said that he would put the country's ivory stockpiles out of reach of the markets.

As an additional pledge, the leaders of Botswana, Chad, Gabon and Tanzania have agreed to a moratorium on the ivory trade for at least 10 years, as part of an elephant protection initiative.

While the trade of ivory has been banned under CITES (the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) since 1989, some states have been granted permission to sell their ivory stocks in the past.

Putin backs Sisi 'bid for Egypt presidency'

Russia's President Vladimir Putin has said he backs Egypt's military chief Abdul Fattah al-Sisi in his "bid for the presidency".

Mr Putin, meeting Field Marshal Sisi in Moscow to discuss an arms deal, said he was "aware" of his decision to run.

However, there has been no announcement on the matter from the Egyptian side.

The field marshal led the overthrow of President Mohammed Morsi last July, and the new constitution calls for an election by mid-April.

Correspondents say Field Marshal Sisi would be likely to win, given his popularity and the lack of any serious rivals.
'Wish you luck'

Mr Putin said: "I know that you, mister defence minister, have decided to run for president of Egypt.

"I wish you luck both from myself personally and from the Russian people."

Field Marshal Sisi is in Russia to negotiate a $2bn arms deal, after the United States suspended some of its annual military assistance in response to Mr Morsi's removal.

Field Marshal Sisi said: "Our visit offers a new start to the development of military and technological co-operation between Egypt and Russia. We hope to speed up this co-operation."

No details have been released about the military discussions, although Russian media pointed to Egyptian interest in acquiring air defence missiles, MiG-29 jets and helicopters, among other weapons.
