Statute overview

About this statute

This Act sets up the Malaysian Timber Industry Board and requires registration for certain timber industry activities, declarations before timber import or export, and payment of any cess imposed on timber exports. This provision gives enforcement officers broad search, seizure, sampling, and evidence-gathering powers, and creates offences for obstruction, non-compliance, and tampering with sealed items. The Board may impose a surcharge for failures to keep proper records or make or delay payments, and the surcharge can be recovered as a debt if not withdrawn. The Board can also make disciplinary rules for its officers and servants, with ministerial approval, and must follow notice, reporting, and representation requirements.
