Abstract

The National Forest Policy, in conjunction with the Wood and Paper Industries Strategy and the Regional Forest Agreement process, are key elements in the Government's policy of integrating industry and conservation objectives for Australia's native forests. This integration will remove uncertainty over access to native forest resources in Australia, and allow for the establishment of an internationally competitive forest-based industry in Australia. This industry will not only be internationally competitive, but will operate within the framework of a world class reserve system under the international guidelines of ecologically sustainable forest management, as determined and applied by the Montreal Process criteria and indicators.
