Labour criticizes government for stifling agricultural growth
Labour's agriculture spokesperson says the Government’s decisions are set to hamstring growth within the farming sector.
The National-NZ First coalition agreement said government agencies would be directed, where appropriate, to prioritise the use of woollen rather than artificial fibres in government buildings.
Wools of New Zealand said it was "disappointing" wool carpet was excluded from the new tender.
KO is NZ's largest landlord, owning or managing over 75,000 homes and a contract to supply this many homes would equate to over a million lineal metres of carpet - a vital shot in the arm for the wool sector.
The Hound has to wonder, how much longer is Luxon's government going to allow unelected officials to give the middle finger to clear directives?
