APRIL has completed the relevant preconditions for undertaking the process for ending disassociation with FSC, in accordance with FSC-PRO-01-009 (Processing FSC Policy for Association Complaints).
APRIL and FSC continue to be engaged in a dialogue around the FSC Remedy Framework (FSC-PRO-01-007) which becomes effective from July 2023. This dialogue is supported by a Memorandum of Understanding between two organizations.
APRIL’s company specific remedy plan will be developed and implemented according to the provisions of the FSC Remedy Framework.
APRIL can end disassociation with FSC once the relevant thresholds as described in the remedy plan have been met, which are verified by a qualified third-party verifier, and a decision to end disassociation is taken by the FSC Board of Directors.
