Yes, but about 4,000 ha worth was given out in licences. I am worried. I have looked at the figures for this year to date. While I acknowledge that the number of licences for felling has improved, on the planting side of it I have looked up the figures for January and February so far and it is backwards we are certain to go again. That is what I worry about.
