There should be policies for the sustainable management of woodlands to benefit local industries such as those related with biomass/fuel. Such policies should seek to provide multiple benefits of woodland management, e.g. planting on a catchment basis to help address issues of flooding/water management, increasing local skills and employment opportunities, enhancing biodiversity, encouraging local sources of building materials etc.

ESCC should be added as a source of reference for LWS.
Where there are references to BAP habitats/species, text should include reference to Habitats and Species of Principal Importance.
