A way forward. For the next generation of GFAs beyond 2015 it is important to further improve the quality of the agreements and to monitor their implementation. The agreements should be based on cross-border labour relations and involve local unions on the ground. They should promote collective bargaining at the local or national level and develop cross-border recruitment and organizing campaigns by using union networks in MNEs.18 The suggestions for a way forward in this report focus on what can be learned from the content analysis and the evaluation of the case studies for the drafting and implemen- tation of future agreements. Following this, recommendations for future research are briefly dis- cussed. The content analysis of the 54 most recent GFAs has shown that there is great variation in how an agreement makes reference to the GSC. Chapter 3 quotes several examples of texts taken from 18 See for example IndustriALL’s revised GFA Guidelines, adopted by IndustriALL’s Executive Committee in Tunis in December 2014. GFAs and identifies good-practice examples to promote freedom of association and collective bar- gaining at suppliers and subcontractors of MNEs. Generally, the bargaining partners should strive to: • include a reference to the entire supply chain of the MNE; • include the duty of the MNE to treat respect for provisions in the GFA as a determin- ing criterion for establishing or continuing business relationships with suppliers and subcontractors; • include a clear and comprehensive definition of the group of companies that is repre- sented by the MNE; • include the duty of the MNE to use its influence in minority shareholdings to promote respect for the provisions in the GFA and to consider selling its shares in case of con- tinuous violations; • phrase the obligations of the MNE with regard to the supply chain not as an objective to be reached but as compulsory; and • include in the breadth of the scope of application to the supply chain all vital provi- sions of the GFA. The text analyses in Chapter 3 also show that there are several examples of good practice for further collaboration between MNEs and trade unions, such as on local and global reviews and train- ing programmes as well as measures to enable local trade unions to monitor the GFA at suppliers and subcontractors. Nevertheless, only a few general trends have emerged so far in GSCs with regard to these examples. To further strengthen the implementation of GFAs along the supply chain it will be i...

A way forward. It is suggested that the ACAP Advisory Committee considers how the conservation of shearwaters might be advanced by the listing of selected species within the Agreement. Xxxxxx & Xxxxx (2008) gave a high weighting (Table 1) to shearwaters that were killed on longlines as addressing this threat requires international efforts, to which ACAP is well- suited. Based on this approach the following nine species appear to be suitable candidates for further consideration. Mediterranean and Macaronesian Regions Cory’s Shearwater Calonectris diomedea Cape Verde Shearwater Calonectris edwardsii Balearic Shearwater Puffinus mauretanicus Yelkouan Shearwater Puffinus yelkouan Southern Hemisphere Wedge-tailed Shearwater Puffinus pacificus Flesh-footed Shearwater Puffinus carneipes Pink-footed Shearwater Puffinus creatopus Sooty Shearwater Puffinus griseus Short-tailed Shearwater Puffinus tenuirostris ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Thanks are due to Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx, Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxx Xxx for their help with obtaining references on shearwaters over the years.

A way forward. The Queensland Government is presently developing and formulating a policy on the ‘future of timber production on state-owned land’ including its position on the SEQFA. Timber Queensland has been working constructively with the State Government on a proposed policy solution consistent with the original aims of the SEQFA. There is an excellent opportunity to maintain and grow this important regional industry through greater resource security. This proposal has three key actions: Extend the current state-owned supply arrangements for a minimum of 10 years (on a rolling basis) to allow for a transition to greater use of sustainably managed private forests. This State supply is necessary to guarantee investment confidence and financing security in new mill plant and associated value adding and job creation. Accelerate private native forestry management incentives and extension activities, to develop a more financially secure and long- term private timber resource. Ensure the ‘Managing a Native Forest Practice’ regulatory code remains a practical and cost-effective tool for landowners to implement good forest management. This code should also be broadened to ensure the full suite of relevant commercial forest types is included. Understanding the Impact With the implementation of these actions, the industry would have the confidence to further invest and grow. TQ estimates that the industry could double in mill door value to over $410 million by 2034, and generate an additional 1000 direct jobs in regional areas. OR Without implementation of these actions, there is a significant risk of industry collapse, mill closures and job losses across the region.
