| is.evaluation.notes | Exploration of the feasibility of combined organic and FSC certification of edible NTFPs, including thinking on the practical steps that would need to be taken (harmonising requirements, joint auditing, implications for accreditation systems etc.). | |
| is.evaluation.quotes | "There is no 'magic bullet' which will massively reduce the costs of combined organic andFSC certification of NTFPs. Full mutual recognition between FSC and organic inspectionsystems is unlikely in the short or medium term. However, it appears to be possible to reducethe complexity and costs of combined certification by taking action both at the internationallevel and by certification bodies at the national level." | |
| is.evaluation.quotes | "The development of harmonized requirements and systems requires investment both at theinternational level and by individual certification bodies. Whether this takes place dependson the perception of market demand and on the potential for support from funding bodies." | |
