Government Support of FSC

The Australian Government should support forest industry best practice rather than undermine it

In his address to the Australian Forest Growers Conference on Monday, the Federal Forestry Minister, Senator the Hon Eric Abetz, was critical of forest industry, non-government organisations and markets that support the internationally recognised forest certification scheme, the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC).

"The Federal Government should be encouraging the forest industry to adopt high standards rather than undermining their efforts," said Greg Bourne, Chief Executive Officer, WWF-Australia.
