The proposed Order seeks to give the Forestry Commission new powers in three main areas: to enable joint ventures to provide recreational facilities within publicly owned forests; to exploit research commercially; and in relation to enforcing the restocking of felled trees. The Committee considers that the proposal meets the tests laid down in the Regulatory Reform Act and would be beneficial; and therefore recommends that a draft Order be laid before the House.
