<p>Our Forestry and Woodland Policy Statement, published in January 2013, set out
our three overall policy priorities. These are to protect, improve and expand our
woodland resource. We are now implementing the actions we proposed to achieve these
objectives. We have made tree and plant health a high priority as demonstrated in
our recent Tree Heath Management Plan; and we are seeing increases in the area of
woodland under management. Taken together with relevant regulatory frameworks regarding
the felling of trees, they will significantly help to protect our woodlands from degradation
and deforestation.</p><p> </p><p> </p>
