Scoring an own goal - 2001 - Forestry & British Timber 30(5) May 2001, 24-26(3) .
Appraisal of the England Forest Strategy from a member of Independent Forestry. Provides a summary of the strategy which aims to increase the quality and quantity of forestry/woodland for the following areas: rural development, economic regeneration, recreation, access, tourism, environment, conservation. The strategy was initially welcomed by the industry, but its implementation has highlighted a number of problems, particularly with the point scoring system in place to obtain planting grants. Proposes that six points should be adopted as a more realistic target and that the deadlines for new applications is altered. Tables.
