Forest Sustainability


The Logging Industries Advocacy Service has been set up to support the logging industry and to advocate the better exploitation of Tasmania’s forests. Clearly, and contrary to much of what we read in the press, Tasmania’s forests are under exploited and far too much of Tasmania’s forest estate is locked up.

Unless this situation is addressed Tasmania will be economically disadvantaged. There actually needs to be more subsidies available for those with the means and the expertise to take advantage of the wealth locked up in forests. The opening up of forests to more expansive exploitation of the under utilised and valuable resources in Tasmanian forests and it must start now.

Join the fight to release the forests before it is too late! A sustainable logging industry is a must for Tasmania’s future!

You ain't kidding buddy. There's not enough work done to support us in this industry. Tasmania deserves more logging, no question.

There's no-one committed to increase the exploitation of our forests that the CFMEU and other people in our industry.

I'm having trouble paying for my rig with the amounts I'm able to earn from Gunns. My costs are high and my income is weak. I'm worried that I won't be able to afford to maintain my rig OK. Any ideas? Anybody out there tried saving on maintenance?

Yeah, I for one am sick of those pansy grape growers on the Tamar whinging about if there is going to be a little bit of smell from a pulp mill while they sip their chardonnay. Get over it!!
