The F.O.I. is to make a donation to a pro-environment project of the Ministry for Rural Affairs and the Environment instead of sending Christmas cards to convey its Yuletide greetings.
This environment fund is to be used to buy and plant trees in designated areas throughout our islands, as part of Government's afforestation project entitled "Trees for People".
The FOI council and secretariat extend their warmest greetings to all FOI members and the public for a happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year.
The FOI's offices will be closed for the festive season between Wednesday and Sunday, January 4.
