We in the National Party have no problem with forestry—forestry can be a good thing—but we do have a problem with a regime that favours forestry conversion over other forms of investment, because this is having a perverse impact throughout our rural communities. We are seeing that the economic and social characteristics of many parts of New Zealand are changing very quickly. There has been an immediate response to this Government's decision to tilt the playing field toward forestry in that screeds and hectares of land are being bought up for conversion into forestry, and that has meaning for communities. There are few jobs because forestry doesn't require as much labour and manpower and womanpower on a day-to-day basis, and in some communities it's also having pretty significant environmental effect. These are very human stories. These are people who no longer are able to have enough kids at the local school, because what have always been productive farms are bare pine forests. People no longer have enough people for the rugby team. It's the changing face of rural communities.
