Issuers who are active in the extractive or logging of primary forest industries and whose transferable securities are admitted to trading on a UK regulated market have to prepare a report annually on payments made to governments for each financial year.

These rules are set out in DTR 4.3A.

Issuers in scope who must prepare a DTR 4.3A report on payments to governments are required by DTR 4.3A.10R to:
