Forestry operations

A major part of any forestry operation is providing tree seedlings for tree planting. Along with natural regeneration, using existing trees and their seeds or sprouts, foresters use artificial methods to grow trees. Artificial methods used to produce a forest include seedling planting and seeding.

Going to your first forested buisness can quickly turn into a nightmare. You can make the process much easier if you develop a plan..........................................................

Ban on timbers export?

There is certainly going to be other banning orders and all that is being asked is that before the banning order is issued the full repercussions and effect be studied and fully analysed, so as not to affect the citizenry as it has in the case of timber.

Draconian measures, that make no rhyme or reason, have been instituted in the 2010 Finance Bill. The Government in its infinite wisdom has levied a tax of Ten Thousand ($10,000) Dollars on each container of timber that is to be exported out of Sierra Leone. In the preceding paragraphs there has been reference to the fact that this Government, in this case, both the Executive and Legislature does not carefully craft laws, taking the interest of the nation into consideration.

The 2010 Finance Bill presented to Parliament contained among other provisions, the colossal amount of $10,000 as export duty on timber. The rubber stamp Parliament, instead of taking time out to study the Bill carefully and weighing the resultant unemployment woes on the timber industry versus a naked ploy to raise revenue, went ahead in a hurry and approved the Bill as it was presented by the Deputy Minister of Finance. The export of timber thus goes from $1500 to $10,000.

Government poised to improve forest industry.

17 Mar 2010

In an effort to secure and preserve the forest in the country from rampant misuse and abuse by certain foreign companies in the name of investors in the country, the government of Sierra Leone in collaboration with parliament is poised to improve the forest industry in the country.

Deputy Minister of Finance and Economic Development, Momodu L. Kargbo, on Monday at a pre-legislative committee meeting with Members of Parliament at Committee Room One in parliament, highlighted the importance of the proposed Bill that has been tabled yesterday for debate to amend all new tax policies introduced in the 2010 Finance Act covering the following: Tobacco and Alcoholic Beverages, Agricultural Sector, Forestry Sector, Tourism Sector, Mines and Mineral Sector and General Merchandise which policies have to do with the lives of the people of Sierra Leone.

In the area of tobacco and beverage in the old policy, there was no provision for revenue stamp on tobacco and alcoholic beverages. The would be new policy will be an introduction of revenue stamp on tobacco and alcoholic beverages and that as from April 1st 2010, there shall be placed on every tobacco product and every alcoholic beverage imported into or manufactured in Sierra Leone a revenue stamp issued by the National Revenue Authority (NRA) for that purpose.

In the area of Forestry Sector, in the old policy, it was stated that exporters of any timber or timber products shall pay to NRA as export levy on every 20 cubic metres of such timber or part thereof the sum of US$1,500. The Forestry Act of 1988 when amended in section 25A exporters of timber would be expected to pay US$10,000 per every 20 cubic metres, thereby creating an atmosphere of protection and preservation of our natural forests.

The Deputy Minister Momodu Kargbo disclosed to members of parliament that policies amendment on the six sectors is all aimed at improving the living standards of the our people. He further said that government’s main objective is to put a ban on the exportation of our timers and timber products. He said that government with support from parliament will be actively involved in improving the forest industry by encouraging investors to embark on national manufacturing and produce well furnished products from our forest that can be easily exported to other nations to meet international competitive market.

Chairman on the pre-legislative meeting, Deputy Leader of Parliament, Hon. Mohamed Sufian Kargbo, thanked the deputy minister and officials from the ministry of Finance for highlighting the issues in the pre-leg thereby giving them the opportunity to understand the importance of the policies and why they should be amended.

He therefore called on his colleague members of parliament to support the Bill by debating the policies and issues in the well of parliament and pass it into law. However, members of parliament expressed concern over the number of trucks loaded with timbers that are stocked at Queen Elizabeth II Quay awaiting clarification from government.

The Deputy Minister, Momodu Karbgo, clarified that those truck loaded with timbers at the Quay would be screened and that any one that has under taken its activity by meeting the laid down rules and regulations would be allowed to export. This is aimed at addressing the rampant misuse of our forest by dishonest investors that are ravaging our forests. The debate for the amendment of the policies will be decided by members of parliament.
