Ghana's Forestry Commission (FC) has revealed that a Review Committee is being set up for upward review of the country's Timber Rights Fee (TRF), popularly known as timber fees meant for the state. Since 2005, the commission has not revised the TRF, necessitating the review.
TRF is rent that timber companies pay for their concessions annually. When the TRF is reviewed upwards, more revenue will be earned from the numerous timber companies operating in Ghana.
