There is a proposal by the Scottish Government to lease up to 25% of
the Forestry Commission forest land in Scotland. I have been asked to
give you this link to a petition against this proposal:

There are links at this site giving more information about the topic.

I make no comment whether this is a good or bad idea but just wish to
bring to the members of this group so you can make up your own minds.
As skiers use Forestry Commission land I think it is of legitimate
interest.
