So this bill ensures that the forestry conversions by overseas investors continue to bring broad benefits to New Zealand. These investments will now be considered under the same rules as other investments in sensitive land, known as "the benefit to New Zealand test", rather than under the streamlined special forestry test. The removal of the special forestry test only means that conversions are now treated the same as any other overseas investment in non-urban land. This will channel overseas investment into the right forests, in the right place, for the right reasons.
