Outcome
In its initial assessment, published on 8 November 2018, the NCP decided to allow the complaint against HPG in relation to the recommendation that businesses should seek ways to prevent or mitigate adverse human rights impacts linked to their business operation or by their business relationships. It has offered its good offices for a process of mediation. If the parties will not be able to reach a mediated solution, the NCP will conduct its own research into the issues, the findings of which will be presented in a final statement.
The NCP rejected the parts of the complaint that relate to Jaguar Land Rover and Rolex, since in its view the companies are not sufficiently linked to the party causing the harm for the guidelines to apply.
