  1. UK GOVERNMENT’S TIMBER PROCUREMENT POLICYClaire TrelivingDepartment for Environment, Food and Rural AffairsJanuary 2006 1

  2. PEFC System Changes • CPET checking PEFC national bodies for system change adoption • Findings will be discussed with PEFC • HMG to announce results Feb 06 • All national bodies must have adopted the changes if PEFC is to continue providing assurance of sustainable timber 2

  3. Certification Scheme Assessments • Annual review of all the assessed schemes planned to start at end of Feb 06 • CPET Ref Board will consider revising assessment methodology guidance to include evidence of system adoption • Performance in the forest cannot be part of the assessment process 4

  4. Assurance Assessment Criteria • CPET Ref Board will consider suggestions for improving Cat A criteria • CPET would welcome suggestions • Certification schemes to be consulted • Category B assurance criteria will be modelled on Category A

  5. Central Point of Expertise on Timber • Reference Board expanded to include FERN and Confor • CPET to check policy implementation by central departments • CPET to research barriers to supply • Training workshops continuing

  6. CPET Web Address • http://www.proforest.net/cpet 5

  7. Social Criteria • HMG re-examining scope for including criteria in contracts to help forest dependent people • Defra, OGC and CPET working to produce a report by end Jan 2006 • Defra will meet with Danes and Dutch to explore the possibility of a common approach • Caution against raising expectations at this stage • Any change would have far reaching implications for UK public sector procurement policy

  8. Timber Policy Promotion • Engaging local authorities is a major goal • Responsible timber purchasing features in the sustainable procurement initiatives now underway • Harmonising policies with EU member states is another goal but we also need to persuade more to develop policies • International promotion beyond EU being done through G8, UN and bi-laterally.
