The Forest Industries Association will announce today whether it will abandon Tasmania's long-running forest peace talks.

The association walked out of the peace talks earlier this month over the State Government's plan to split Forestry Tasmania.

It planned to declare whether it would return to the talks yesterday but put off the announcement, saying it needed to finalise "a number of internal and external communications".

It is understood members had voted to abandon the talks for at least another month, while the Government finalises the Forestry Tasmania restructure and decides whether the state-owned company will retain control of production forests.

It is unclear whether yesterday's meetings changed that position.
