Purpose of the consultation
The National Assembly for Wales’ Environment and
Sustainability Committee is undertaking an inquiry into the Public Forest Estate in Wales.
The purpose of the inquiry will be to consider how Natural
Resources Wales (NRW) has both managed the public forest estate and delivered
forestry services to the sector in Wales since its creation in April 2013.
Terms of reference
To assess the management of the public forestry estate in
Wales and the provision of forestry services by Natural Resources Wales, with
particular regard to:
§ The commercial operations and focus of the NRW;
§ Delivery of business advice and support to the forestry
sector in Wales;
§ Management of disease outbreaks on the public forestry
estate; and
§ Progress made by NRW to deliver the recommendations of the
Wales Audit Office.
Invitation to contribute to the inquiry

We will be holding oral evidence sessions during the summer
term 2014 so it would be helpful if you could indicate in your submission
whether you would be prepared to give oral evidence, if invited.

the National Assembly to publish evidence provided to a Committee on our

evidence in audio or video format. The
