Simplified and Harmonized Forestry Regulatory Procedures of the Philippines : Terminal Report

This terminal report highlights the results of the analysis of the Forestry Development Center (FDC) based at the College of Forestry and Natural Resources, through the University of the Philippines Los Baños Foundation, Incorporated (UPLB-FI) on the preparation the Manual on Forestry Regulatory Procedures of the Philippines. The undertaking covered the period from June 2003 to 15 April 15 2004.

The scope of their work included the analysis of the forestry regulatory procedures (FRP) on forest land use management agreements, forest resources utilization permits, co-management schemes on forest lands, and forest law enforcement and due diligence. The analysis of the said forestry regulatory procedures was based on the ecogovernance principles of transparency, accountability and participatory decision-making. The approaches taken in the simplification and harmonization of FRPs were: the integration of related policies (deregulation); functional levels of the DENR (decentralization, reduction of levels, definition of roles, checks and balances); the simplification of processes, requirements, responsibilities; and the harmonization of procedures (removal of duplicating, conflicting, overlapping provisions).
