Forest, Soil and Water Conservation Ordinance (Amendment) Act, 1983 (No. 11 of 1983).

This Act amends the 1946 Ordinance essentially for purposes of updating obsolete provisions, such as penalties, fines and names of authorities. Honey, soil, rock and other minerals are added to the definition of forest produce in section 2 of the Ordinance. A definition of "forest" is also included: "...an area of land, with or without trees, declared to be a Forest Reserve, Protected Forest or prohibited area".
