If this goes ahead 2.2 million residents in and around the Hauraki Gulf will lose their ability for democratic accountability.

Here is a part of Celia’s presentation on the grape varieties, regions and the importance of NZ Winegrower’s policy of sustainable wine growing, first introduced in 1995 and the increasing numbers of organic certified wineries.
