The Foundation requested to be heard by the EIA sub-committee (EIASC) of the Advisory Council on the Environment (ACE) but was refused.  On behalf of the Foundation, Board Directors Ruy Barretto and Lam Chiu Ying observed the open segment of the meeting of EIASC on 25 June.  Lobbying failed to stop the EIASC giving a conditional endorsement of the EIA report of the proposed columbarium project at Sha Lo Tung.
