National Forestry Commission
The National Forestry Commission was created in 2003 by Law No. 462, also known as the "Law for the Conservation, Promotion and Sustainable Development of the Forestry Sector". The Commission is a forum for consensus-building in the forestry sector, which participates in the formulation, monitoring, control and approval of forestry policies, strategies and regulations. The Commission is made up of representatives of government agencies, one representative of civil society environmental organizations, one representative of forestry companies, one representative of forest owners' organizations, and one representative of professional forestry associations.
