The VTT final report was handed down on 30 September and the surplus $10 million from the South East Forestry Partnerships Program will be spent on implementing its recommendations. That is, the money will stay in the South-East to be spent in line with industry initiatives that promote a sustainable and profitable forestry industry. I will advise further on how the government will ensure this is achieved through the establishment of the appropriate criteria.
