My Department is reviewing all current forestry claims, in compliance with EU regulations, using digital imaging to establish the precise location and size of each forest. The established forest size is compared to the size currently on record and, where this varies, clients are informed of the correct forest size for future forestry claims. In all cases clients, such as the person in question, are advised in writing that they are entitled to have the decision reviewed by notifying the Department in writing within 28 days of the letter and submitting a revised map prepared by an Approved Forester showing the correct boundaries of the plantation. My officials will re-examine this person's claim on receipt of the above details.
