Mr. Gowran's submission states protective forest zoning may be part of the solution. What kind of acreage is he talking about in that regard?

On ash dieback, we were told at our previous meeting that ash is gone. It is good to hear somebody else with something different to say to us. Mr. Gowran mentioned a figure of 5%, which can be built upon. What solution has he for rebuilding our native ash stock other than opting for a different species?
