in senate question time the other day, some polly was responding to a dorothy dixer, and pointed out that an extra 9000 jobs had been created in the forrestry industry in the past year. all sorts of forestry production was up by about 20%. previously the industry was in decline.
(relevant reference would be in hansard somewhere
so why was the industry previously in decline - and why is it starting to grow again???.
forestry is a productive industry - producing goods
