- Scottish Government outcomes and delivery of climate change, biodiversity and forestry targets
- the implementation, monitoring and statutory reporting of Scotland’s forestry strategy
National Stakeholder Group discussions will help shape the long-term strategic issues that will inform the future of forestry in Scotland.
