Extended public consultation on FSC Draft Standard


Forest Stewardship Council
FSC Ireland



********* NOTICE*********

Consultation deadline extended


Please note that due to several requests from potential consultees to extend the timeframe for consultation, in addition to the delay in the cost study and field testing, FSC Ireland has agreed to extend the consultation deadline until 20th November. 

If you have not yet managed to submit feedback on the Draft Irish Standard for Forest Management Certification, you now have until the 20th November 2009 to do so. Similarly, if you have already submitted feedback, and wish to make supplementary comments you are most welcome to do so.

The Draft Standard document and accompanying Annexes can be found at www.irishforestcertification.com, as can the registration form for the Consultative Forum. Registration for the Forum is free and via this mechanism FSC Ireland can keep Forum members informed of developments relating to the Draft Standard.

Feedback and comments can be made via email (to consultation@irishforestcertification.com) or in writing to the address below.

***Please advise your members, colleagues and any other interested parties you are aware of that might wish to take advantage of this extended deadline and comment on the Draft Standard.***
