| Message | We will only support a bill where the Government requires replacement planting - it is worthless to be involved with a self destructive industry which will eventually bleed our ecological sufficiency dry. |

| Message | Private companies have to obtain a license allready, so it just doesn't mean everyone who owns some forrest can do whatever he want's with it. The National Agency will offcourse re-plant everything they take down, since they are ran by the government. With these two forrest are protected enough. |

| Message | Unless you fund the nationalised forestry commission to a point where it no longer has to seriously compete, then how do you expect to afford to replant when nobody else has to? And then what happens to your oh-so-precious free, competing market? You can't have it both ways. |
