For the record, Minister Jarvis has met with FIFWA twice. Neither of which were to discuss this matter. There has still been no response to FIFWA's urgent request for a meeting.

I going to go out on a limb and suggest not many members of the government (past and present, federal and especially state in WA), have any idea what hardwood timber even is BUT the workers & communities they live in and support are getting a lot of attention in #qt today 👏

Another sawmill in southern WA will close before the official ban of native logging comes into effect in 2024.
