Abstract
Annual review of Swiss forest policy 2016 Swiss forest policy in 2016 was characterized by the amendment of the Federal Acton Forest, which was decided upon in the spring. Specifically, the Federal Council and the Federal Administration prepared the necessary revision of the Forest Ordinance. After the expiration of the referendum deadline, the legal decrees entered into force on January 1, 2017. The Federal Court mainly addressed cases related to forest clearance and the allowed distance of buildings to forests. With the development of spatial, landscape, agricultural and energy policies questions of land-use remain central. This annual review takes into account forest policy developments until the end of March 2017.
