Hunting set to reopen soon in NSW forests

Written By Unknown on Jumat, 25 Oktober 2013 | 11.25

THE NSW government hopes to re-open state forests to hunters as soon as possible, but says it has to wait until a risk assessment is handed down next month.

Minister for Primary Industries Katrina Hodgkinson said the government's "preliminary intention" is to re-open 358 state forests to hunting after it was suspended earlier this year.

But she said this won't take place until the Forestry Corporation releases their risk assessment, which is due to be completed in the second half of November.

"The NSW government believes in the role of volunteer hunters in contributing to co-ordinated pest management programs," Ms Hodgkinson said in a statement on Friday.

With the formal abolition of the controversial Game Council earlier this month, she said the government is now following through with their "commitment... to restore volunteer hunting in a timely manner".

Ms Hodgkinson said the final number of state forests that will be open for hunting will depend upon the risk assessment.
