This is despite the fact that its then-Defence Minister Andrew Little seemed dead keen on the nuclear-capable military alliance when Labour was last in a position of power to make decisions that had consequences.

Biosecurity NZ: Strict Biosecurity Measures In Place On Chicken Farm

“Tests from the Mainland Poultry managed farm have identified a high pathogenic H7N6 subtype of avian influenza.
