Timber
Lord Eden of Winton asked Her Majesty’s Government:
What percentage of tropical timber imported into the United Kingdom comes from legally felled sources; what methods they use to verify this; and what is the total value of the imports. [HL7108]
The Minister of State, Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Lord Rooker): Both the percentage of legally felled timber entering UK ports and its value are unknown because there is no verification at port of entry.
