The project targets six small loggers’ associations in Region Ten.The minister also noted that involving all communities within the Upper Demerara-Upper Berbice region would see them working together, as he reminded that with the downturn of the bauxite industry, forestry activities were introduced.He pointed out too, that there are no special concessions given to anyone, adding that if there is a preference, it would be for a local company or organisation. He was referring to recent articles appearing in some sections of the media that the government was giving special treatment to foreign investors.He stated that, “I want to refute any perception that there is preferential access to non-Guyanese,” noting that if there is any discrimination then it is in favour of Guyanese as, “we don’t want Guyanese operators within the community to be left behind…”The minister also noted that with 260 forestry operators being trained in 2014,Cheap Football Jerseys, the target is 1300 in 2015.

The action plan’s core procedures are the FLEGT measures which are the EU regulations, Kopecký pointed out.He explained that the agreement between EU and Guyana in 2012 involved an agreement which has shown decent progress when it ended this month.The EU Ambassador observed that the FLEGT process in Guyana has also provided the opportunity to further strengthen and maintain its consolidation towards maintenance of forest government, improving legal compliance and building capacity for community engagement for forest policy engagement and implementation.Ambassador Kopecký also said that the EU shared the initiative that forest laws could be further improved. He noted that the EU/FLEGT US$10M programme would ensure that countries follow the plans. He welcomed the six associations working together to follow the law.Bremner meanwhile stated that Region 10 is gaining funding from the FAO to carry out projects and to ensure sustainable overview and increase the capacity of the small loggers’ association and others.
