>Rio Tinto decision hailed by Howard

In the British parliament last year MP Michael Clapham must have been
surprised when quizzing the one-time radical firebrand Overseas
Development Minister Clare Short about one company's record of
oppressive labour relations to be told 'Rio Tinto had a bad reputation,
but it seems to be working to change. All of us, including my hon.
Friend, should meet Rio Tinto and get behind those improvements in
performance'. Short added that she had given Rio Tinto Zinc a 'World
Aware' award.
