22.01.2022 27 November 2012 MEDIA RELEASE TA ANN COMMITS TO TASMANIA’S FOREST PEACE LEGISLATION Ta Ann Tasmania is committing to an ongoing future in Tasmania operating its Smithton and Huon Mills to produce certified veneer from forests allocated for production under the Legislation for the Tasmanian Forest Intergovernmental Agreement. This commitment by the company seeks to provide for an ongoing viable industry, and importantly the future of our employees. Mr Evan Rolley, Executiv...e Director of Ta Ann Tasmania said today. The company has reviewed the legislation passed by the House of Assembly resulting from a peace agreement between Environmental NGOs and Industry groups, together with assurances provided from the State and Federal Governments. We have also received advice from Forestry Tasmania that the modelled peeler log supply will be approximately 160,000 cubic metres per annum from the proposed new State Forest production zones. Evan Rolley said. Ta Ann Tasmania will renegotiate with Forestry Tasmania the existing Contracts. Ta Ann Tasmania will be seeking the support of the Legislative Council to pass the legislation. Mr Rolley concluded. See more

07.01.2022 Wednesday, 11 September 2013 MEDIA RELEASE TA ANN TASMANIA PROTEST Ta Ann Tasmania notes a few protesters outside its Hobart office today.... The Company fully supports the Tasmanian Forest Agreement, including the reservation of over 500,000 ha of forests, the nomination for World Heritage Area, and has contractually committed to source its wood supply outside of the Tasmanian Forests Agreement reserve areas over the long term regardless of change of Government policies. The wood currently sourced to our two mills is in full compliance with the Tasmanian Forest Agreement, its supportive legislation, and as required by our Surrender Agreement with the Australian Government.

05.01.2022 MEDIA RELEASE 5 Dec 2012 Ta Ann Tasmania committed to further value adding in Tasmania The benefits and the importance of the Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) legislation to the timber Industry and regional Tasmania have been recognised by all stakeholders. It will provide certainty and durability to Tasmania’s forest industry and to domestic and international markets. The legislation will also provide the certainty for further value adding investment.... Group Managing Director KH Wong congratulated the parties to the agreement We are pleased that for the first time ever in Tasmania there is a plan that has the support of the key Parties who are vitally involved in the forestry sector each and every day. Ta Ann Tasmania forms part of the vital integration link between sawmills and residue markets that brings sustainable financial viability to the whole forestry supply chain. As a result of reduced Contract log supply from Forestry Tasmania, Ta Ann Tasmania will be seeking certified log supplies from private forest growers. This will provide a much needed boost for private forest owners. The passing of the legislation will restore confidence to the industry and allow it to consolidate and grow for the future benefit of all Tasmanians. The Group Managing Director announced that should the legislation be passed the company will have the confidence to commit to building a new Plywood mill, to be based in northern Tasmania. It is expected construction could begin within six months subject to the support of local Authorities for the necessary statutory approvals. The Group Managing Director appeals to the Legislative Council to support the forest Agreement Legislation to support industry to move forward in a sustainable way. This is in contrast of the likelihood of being forced to close the mills without the legislation See more
