## Pre-Release Access To Official Statistics: Forestry Commission Key Performance Indicators Introduction

The Forestry Commission's arrangements for pre-release access to Official Statistics are described in a Pre-Release Access Statement1. This document supplements the statement by giving the names and/or job titles of all those persons to whom pre-release access has been granted to Forestry Commission Key Performance Indicators.  The report covers 2 forms of pre-release access: 

- Part 1 provides a list of those receiving pre-release access to the Official 
Statistics in their final form for briefing purposes.  As this is a release covering England, the pre-release access period is **limited to 24 hours**. 
 
- Part 2 provides a list of those receiving pre-release access for quality 
assurance purposes.  
 The justification for giving advance access to each listed recipient will be available on request. Sheila Ward Forestry Commission Lead Official for Statistics Updated November 2020
