ITSCI Implementing Teams

Implementing due diligence in high risk areas for business compliance requires multi-skilled, multi-lingual expertise

The ITSCI Secretariat

International Tin Association

The ITSCI Secretariat is the not-for-profit International Tin Association based in the UK. We manage all day-to-day activities essential to support such a large programme as ITSCI, particularly administration of membership, contracts and financing. The Secretariat also holds and shares information as agreed, and plays an important role in managing traceability data and procedures.
