Thank you for your article on the above. I wonder how many people are actually aware of the implications of this bill going through. Inspite of what Kate Wilkinson says it is once again an intrusion by the government into our lives as citizens of this country.
The government already regulates our lives for 'our own good” by turning it into a nanny state and we should stop being sheeples by allowing it! Thank goodness for people like Jodie Bruning for bringing it to the fore. The home veggie gardener and small growers who sell their produce at farmers markets are in danger of being regulated to the extent that they simply give up.
Similar legislation was passed in the US and there have already been many prosecutions against farmers and people growing vegetables in their own gardens.
So we are not alone in this worldwide drive to have only registered commercial enterprises control our food supply for our own 'safety”.
Why would we give ANYONE the power to intrude our privacy and search our property without search warrants?
The potential to criminalise home food production will forever be present if this bill is passed even though the intent appears innocent at this stage.
Pamela Harris, Judea.
