The issue involved the terminology used in the country’s adaptations record, a document outlining national adjustments to the Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) International Standard, being inconsistent with its Interim Forest Stewardship Standard (IFSS) for indicator 6.5.1 (FSC-STD-RWA-01-2017 EN).
FSC's Country Requirements Programme (PSU), tasked with ensuring consistent application of standards across countries, have now reviewed and addressed the inconsistency. PSU’s interpretation provides a solution to the issue.
