Publish What You Pay

This is an NGO initiative for governments around the world to enact legislation to require transparency and open reporting about what oil and mining companies pay to governments. Unlike the British Government's Extractive Industry Transparency Initiative (EITI), PWYP would be mandatory.

Here are a few documents relating to this initiative. For more complete or updated information, see their website www.publishwhatyoupay.org.
