Last minute Parliamentary Bill excludes beer...

On the last day of Parliament a bill was slipped through the House and into Select Committee. It went unnoticed by virtually everyone – including me. I only picked it up when the Maori Party put out a press release on the subject.

The Bill is called the Geographical Indications (Wine and Spirits) Registration Bill. It will be considered by the Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade select committee. There is no closing date listed for submissions.
