This issue of ClientEarth’s EUTR News provides an update on the operation of the EU’s law to address illegal logging, the EU Timber Regulation (EUTR), from March to May 2020. Unlike previous editions, this issue will not just include information on what the European Commission is doing to ensure the proper application of the EUTR as well as updates on similar legislation internationally, but will also include a couple of publications considering the effects and consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic on the sector.
