Where debts arise on afforestation contracts, each liability is assessed on a case by case basis. As the Statute of Limitations Act 1957 and the Statute of Limitations (Amendment) Act 1991 legislate for debt recovery and related matters, this legislation may apply to some afforestation contract debt cases.
