“I’m delighted that the new Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change & Rural Affairs, Huw Irranca-Davies MS, will be making the keynote address on day one of our conference. Now with responsibility for both the Sustainable Farming Scheme proposals and the emerging Timber Industrial Strategy, his perspective should be of huge interest to our network, from forestry through to timber construction. WoodBUILD, since its inception in 2016, has always been well supported by Welsh Government with past Ministerial addresses from Julie James MS, Cabinet Secretary for Housing, Local Government and Planning, in her previous roles as Housing Minister and then as Minister for Climate Change.” Gary Newman, CEO, Woodknowledge Wales.
