Abstract

This Law establishes the General Directorate of Forests (OGM) lists the duties of the Directorate, many of which constitute a specification of the Ministry's functions. They include forest development (including production, transportation, stocking, silvicultural works, forest roads), administration of the cadastre and related issues, staff training. The functions of the General Director, Assistant General Directors, of individual Departments and of the Regional and District offices are also specified. As this Law was in place before the "Organic Law" of the Ministry was adopted, some of its provisions have become inadequate, being based on the previous organization of the Ministry.
