Govt claims on reducing export logging don’t stack up
Submitted by ACTNOW on Wed, 16/02/2022 - 05:55Updated 18 March 2022 with the details of four further new log export operations that started in December 2021
Government claims that it has stopped issuing new log export licences to foreign owned logging companies are not borne out by the evidence.
There are twenty new foreign-operated log export operations that have started up since 2020, according to the government’s own log export data.
