1548272895Wales8. ForestForest risks, impacts and opportunities8.14aPlease provide the details of your region’s procedures for assessing deforestation and/or forest degradation risks.9Explanation1The regulatory system in place in Wales requires assessment of impact at a number of stages, depending on the nature of the operation. Development has to go through the planning process operated by local authorities which requires stakeholders to be consulted. Any deforestation must be in line with an Environmental Impact Assessment, and government policies such as forestry or environmental policies. Any felling licences must meet the UK Forest Standard in terms of operation, planning and restocking. Many of these are on a case by case basis, but general guidance is available to assist with the process. Examples attached in web link.
