Wade-Brown CeliaCELIA WADE-BROWN (Green): Thank you. It's a pleasure to rise and support this bill especially as I was able to hear some of the submitters. I mean we've got the wine industry from Karikari Estate—I believe is the northernmost—down through to Central Otago. But of course my favourite wine region would have to be the Wairarapa with the Masterton Gladstone and Martinborough areas.We heard from Ata Rangi—which is a very excellent top of the range especially the pinot noir—that it is very expensive to be able to provide tasting volumes and that they want to be able to be part of the local tourism industry. We heard so much about cycle trails I do hope we'll be having more regional funding for cycle trails that are proving so successful; Central Otago potentially the Five Towns Trail lots in the Marlborough area the Whale Trail which will all be excellent. But it's not only cycle tourism it's also walking tourism. I was delighted to be associated with the Wairarapa Walking Festival and our sold out walk was the Gladstone Wine & Olive walk which is great but they had to rely on people buying or ordering bottles rather than be able to charge at the tasting level. Absolutely agree that it was an improvement to include some kind of food although I would like to see our food industry work on the local the locavore side of things as well as the wine with the terroir. It should be that we are very proud of what's produced and we don't just go with a packet of some brand of chips to fulfil—I agree that it would be inappropriate to specify but I do have some hope for this.I do support this bill but I would agree with my colleague who says that it doesn't go far enough. I would like to see a wider approach taken and I hope that the Minister who introduced this as a member's bill will have some conversations with the Minister for Tourism and Hospitality and think about a more comprehensive approach. First of all you've got fruit wines; it's not only about the glorious grape. You've got orchards—and I know there are many MPs here from areas which produce fantastic pears apples—Hon Louise Upston: Blueberry wine.CELIA WADE-BROWN: That's one I haven't tried yet. But I'd also like to see—especially where there is a connection with a region. So we're not talking industrial beer so much as the local water the local hops the places that make a difference. I know that the Minister of tourism is keen to extend tourist visits wider into the regions and also through wider seasons than only the high peak period of the summer. So this would be a fantastic autumn project to bring more people here for food and wine tourism.I would also like to address the alcohol harm issue and this is why it went to the Justice Committee although in some ways you'd think it might go to economic development that included tourism and so on because amongst the many drugs that are consumed wisely or unwisely in this country alcohol certainly has got harmful effects. But charging for it making food available water available and that whole host responsibility I believe will reduce that effect.So I mentioned cideries which would include perry as well—just wanted to not leave anyone out of this. There's meaderies; what fantastic honey we have in New Zealand. Whether all of the health giving qualities of mānuka honey proceed into the mead is probably a question for somebody more technical than myself on this matter. Some of you may not know that in the south of Wellington there is a meadery; why shouldn't they be able to charge for tastings in the same way? And distilleries; you may think that gin is the same the world over but when you start adding local botanicals horopito kawakawa all of those different flavourings then it becomes a thing of our place. So I really do support this bill and look forward to—just because it's not big enough and broad enough now in my view is not a reason not to support it.
