Labor has welcomed the formation of a new
peak body to provide a strong and united voice for Tasmania’s forest industry.
Shadow Minister for Resources, Shane
Broad, said it was pleasing to see wide representation on the Tasmanian Forest
Products Association.
“It’s great to see this new association bringing
together all sectors of Tasmania’s forest industry and membership from major growers
and processors from native forestry and plantation, softwood and hardwood,” Dr
Broad said.
“A united voice is crucial to ensure Tasmania’s
forest industry can look to the future with confidence and build stronger
relationships in our communities.
“I want to congratulate Bryan Hayes on his appointment as inaugural Chair for the TFPA and would like to pay tribute to Terry Edwards for his leadership of the forest industry spanning more than 16 years.”
