CONCERNS that all matters relating to the future of the Forest of Dean should be discussed in public will be raised by Commoners at their meeting this Saturday evening.

Commoners' chairman Henry Mills said members believed strongly that the Forest was a public area and as a result all discussions relating to its future should be discussed openly and in public.

The Commoners meeting will be held at The Nags Head, Yorkley, on Saturday June 4 at 7pm.
