I do not see why the Minister of State has a problem with it. It is simply including another measure. Imported forestry materials should be regulated positively. Why does the Minister of State not include it as part of the extensive list? Arguably, all the items on the list are dealt with elsewhere by other things so why bother listing them at all? If the Minister of State has a list, why does he not include this measure on it?
