| Message | Private forestry industry is regulated to meet environmental standards and there must be a permission for logging. This bill would further increase state's involvement in market economy, decreasing competition and thus increasing inefficiency & bureaucracy. We would like to see both national agency & private forestry companies, not either of two extreme forms. However this is worse than status quo so we oppose this bill. |
