It is noted that the income of Rosleskhoz for the reporting year amounted to 44.6 billion rubles, which is 9.1% less than the projected volume.
“Rosleskhoz’s failure to achieve the planned revenues is due to the growth of arrears in payments for the use of forests to 1.1 billion rubles,” the ministry said in a statement.
Earlier it was reported that the law enforcement agencies of the Irkutsk region revealed the smuggling of timber in the amount of about 435 million rubles by members of an organized criminal group (OCG).
