That starts in the forest and moves through transport, processing and export through to the work at the ports. The group will be working with our stakeholders to get the start-up protocol proposal right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fiona Ewing says New Zealand's forest industry had accepted the government decision two weeks ago that forestry was a non-essential service provider.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever, we now have clear guidelines on MPI approved safe practices from other parts of the primary sector that we are working to adapt.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>These protocols will provide the guidelines and will still require companies and individuals to adopt safe practices specific to their sector groups says Fiona Ewing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur intention is to take the start-up protocol proposal directly to decision makers in MPI and Forestry Minister Shane Jones, so that the government is fully aware of the industry led recovery plan to re-activate the industry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Already there is also a fast growing call from New Zealand\u2019s international customers to provide wood-based products that are deemed essential in their own countries.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need to act on this now. Even though the\u00a0industry shut down in two days when lock down was announced, it will take much longer to get the forestry supply chain organised and moving again and advance planning will ensure a safe and successful restart.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"section-title\"><\/h2>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Zealand&#8217;s forest industry organisations are planning how to get back to work when restrictions on non-essential work are lifted for the industry.
