If the Government knows that there's an urgent security threat to New Zealand or that a foreign power wants to orchestrate a takeover of assets important to New Zealand's security and economy, then they shouldn't be waiting. They should be doing it straight away.

In fact, we shouldn't be trying to impede that sort of activity at all.
