ASSESSMENT OVERVIEW
Hvammur meets at least basic good practice (a score of 3) for all but one of the 21 assessed topics. The exception is P-1, Communications and Consultations (score of 2), owing to an absence of processes or procedures which would prompt the development of satisfactory grievance mechanisms and communications and consultation plans for all project stages.
