Yes, but still better than no regulations. It's an arms race.



Why is that better, specific to this instance?


I would venture to guess the regulation, weak as it was, still slowed the exports.


I would imagine so, if only a minor amount. Seems like it increased the price I would gather, unless the international market for unique wood doesn't behave as I'm speculating :)


Right, but I'd argue this export was beneficial, both to NZ and China.
