lpv:translated text	". I voted to conclude this agreement because I welcome that it will help promote good forest governance and reinforce the relevant legislation in the Central African Republic, including with regard to sustainability, accountability and effective forest management. Trade in timber accounts for 4% of this state’s GDP, with 60% of the exports in this sector being made to the European Union. The new agreement will strengthen opportunities further on the European market for timber from the Central African Republic, while allowing responsible and balanced management of forest resources. I applaud the extended consultation process with the private sector and civil society aimed at producing legality definitions for timber and timber products from the Central African Republic. I welcome that this model of involving all the stakeholders will continue through a national multi-stakeholder committee which will help implement and monitor the agreement. I should mention that the rights to the land and land ownership of the indigenous communities which are dependent on using the forest resources need to be clarified by means of legislative reforms at national level. I should highlight the importance of the agreement being enforced in time in order to make an effective contribution to increasing sustainability and ending the forest degradation caused by illegal logging and the illegal trade in timber products."@en1
