Rio Tinto has decided to review its sponsorship of the David Watt Prize, and will be suspending the awarding of the Prize during that review, which will mean that the Prize will not be awarded this year.

Rio Tinto founded the Prize in David Watt's memory in 1988 and has sponsored it ever since.  It has been a very rewarding corporate sponsorship and has maintained a highly positive momentum over the years. 

We are proud of the strong ties that have been established, which we believe are testament to the importance of David Watt's work and the inspiration he created for the pursuit of excellence in political and economic print journalism
