- Description
A 'big apple' shines beside a map of New Zealand. The North Island opens its mouth thinking 'munch time!' A second version has the word 'Australian market' on the apple and the word 'exporters' on the South Island. A third version does not have the North Island thinking 'munch time!' Context; Australia imposed the restrictions in 1921 to protect local apple trees from fireblight, a pest that also affects pear trees and rose bushes. New Zealand has been pushing for access to the Australian market since 1986, and after "exhaustive efforts" took the dispute to the WTO. The Australian Government says it has no choice but to accept a World Trade Organisation (WTO) ruling that its 90-year-old restrictions on New Zealand apples are unscientific and break international rules.
