"The partnership agreement signed with the Central African Republic (CAR) on 28 November 2011 follows on from the 2003 EU action plan on forest law enforcement, governance and trade in timber, which foresaw the establishment of partnerships with timber-producing and exporting countries to ensure that only legally logged timber is traded and to promote sound forest governance. This agreement constitutes an instrument for addressing illegal logging, for helping to improve regulation, governance and law enforcement in the country’s forestry sector, as well as for strengthening market opportunities for Central African timber products in Europe. Along with establishing a partnership tool for improving management standards, sustainability and accountability in the forestry sector, the EU-CAR Voluntary Partnership Agreement can be expected to contribute positively to overall development and growth in the CAR, including by safeguarding income generated by timber exports to the EU and other international markets. I voted for this report for the aforementioned reasons."@en1
