Résumé

This Act provides rules for the exportation of timber, i.e. any wood of trees grown in East Africa whether unsawn, hewn, sawn or machined. The Minister may make Regulations for the exclusion of any kind of timber from the provisions of this Act and for the restriction or prohibition of the movement of any kind of timber from Uganda either by kind or by quantity. No person shall export any timber to which this Act applies without a valid certificate of grading and export. Export shall only take place through such places or ports of exit as the Chief Conservator of Forests may, by Statutory Instrument, appoint. Grading and marking of timber shall be carried out by graders authorized by the Chief Conservator of Forests.
