The Minister for Lands and Natural Resources, Mr Samuel A. Jinapor has announced that Ghana will deliver its first consignment of Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade (FLEGT) – licensed and labeled timber to the European Union (EU) on June 30, 2025.
He disclosed this at the 12th session of the Ghana EU joint monitoring review mechanism of the voluntary partnership agreement on Wednesday in Accra.
The achievement, he said, would make Ghana the first African country to reach this landmark, placing it as the only African nation on track to comply with the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) on the trade in timber and timber products.
