Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they intend to launch a public consultation on the future of the agreement between the Forestry Commission and Forest Holidays which grants Forest Holidays exclusive access to develop private chalet complexes on publicly owned forest land.

The Forestry Commission does not have any plans to hold a public consultation on any elements of the 2012 Framework Agreement which sets out the relationship between the Forestry Commissioners, Forest Holidays LLP, Forest Holidays (Scotland) LLP, Camping in the Forest LLP and relevant Ministers. The joint venture was first set up in May 2006.
