Mānuka honey dispute: Te Pitau Trust rejects trans-Tasman agreement suggestion

The Australian Manuka Honey Association has called for a boycott of New Zealand's honey, unless it changed its mind on sharing the name.
Australian Trade Minister Dan Tehan is asking his New Zealand counterpart Damien O'Connor for the two countries to work together and reach a trans-Tasman agreement to market the product to the world.
However, Te Pitau chair Victor Goldsmith said it was acting on behalf of iwi to protect mānuka and it was not going to sell its culture to Australia.
"We've spent a lot of time and money getting us to this position, yes and it is legal, it is litigious, so we need to work through that process because they've gone too far down that track, at the eleventh hour for them to come to 'let's sit around the table and work that through.' No," Goldsmith said.
