The task force will also consider options for alignment in the short, medium, and long term and develop technical proposals for consideration by the Sustainable Forest Management and Chain of Custody Working Groups. 

This temporary task force was established by the PEFC International Board of Directors under the Sustainable Forest Management and Chain of Custody Working Groups.
