The Guyana Forestry Commission (GFC) is inviting public feedback on the draft of the updated National Forest Policy and Forestry Plan, which Commissioner of Forests James Singh has described as a departure from the dated “forests-for-timber” approach.
The GFC yesterday presented the draft plan for feedback from the public, ahead of its submission to Cabinet.
The document is now available for viewing on the GFC’s website (http://www.forestry.gov.gy/), where members of the public can also submit comments for consideration. The deadline for those submissions is Friday, February 23rd.
