THE Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) announced on Friday it is planning to cut the processing time of mining permits.

In a media briefing during an event, DENR Secretary Maria Antonia Yulo-Loyzaga said the agency aims to reduce the time from six years to one to three years as it plans to digitalize most of its processes with a goal of attracting more investors to the Philippines and implement digitalization within this year.
