Anyone here from New Zealand or know anyone living there?

Is there a food bill going through that will take away the right to grow your 
own food or is this more scare tactics?

I'm not from NZ, but should you wish to wade through it, here it is:

This article gives a non-hysterical overview, along with links to some

This indicates that the government is hearing citizens concerns, and
looking to amend the bill, so it will be clearer:
