Petitions

Following petition presented to house:

Timber industry

The Petition of certain citizens of the State of Victoria draws to the attention of the Legislative Council the vital importance of Victoria’s sustainable native timber industry to the economic and social prosperity of regional communities and timber towns.

The petitioners therefore request that the Legislative Council call on the Government to overturn its flawed and appalling decision to shut down the native timber industry and close loopholes that allow legal action by green lawfare groups to shut down harvesting operations.

By Ms BATH (Eastern Victoria) (84 signatures).

Laid on table.
