Strengthen remedy and accountability for harms in supply chains.

Source summary · attributed to the authors

The source sets out the signatories’ critique and case examples; inclusion does not independently validate each allegation.

A question for inquiry, not a finding about the authors’ intentions.

Keep the source and the reading apart.
