Request for Supply Information
Dear
I am writing to inform you that as a member of the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC), MID House of Diamonds is required to carry out due diligence on our supply chain to ensure that we source diamonds responsibly, in a way that respects human rights and does not contribute to conflict. As part of our commitment to responsible sourcing, we are now working with our suppliers to understand their sources of supply and due diligence procedures for managing risks in their supply chain. To fulfil our obligations, we ask that you share the following information with us (where available) by MAY 30 2021 : 1. The sources of diamonds, in aggregate, that you supply to our company. This is specifically the furthest upstream point in the supply chain that the diamonds can be identified as originating from e.g. company, mine or specific geographical area of production. 2. List the percentage of diamonds that you supply to us that fall into the following categories: a. Rough/polished diamonds from known large-scale mining or artisanal and small-scale mining producers that provide information on the original source of production (e.g. company, mine or specific geographical area of production is known) b. Rough/polished diamonds from established suppliers or open market where there is some, but limited, information on the original source of production (e.g. country of origin is known) c. Rough/polished diamonds from established suppliers or open market where there is no information available on the original source of production. 3. Evidence that you have undertaken due diligence on the source of diamonds supplied to our company. This could include, for example, copies of any supply chain risk assessments, reports or audits you have done, copies of any company policies you have on responsible sourcing, evidence of participation in responsible sourcing initiatives or programmes.
