[QUOTE="Alastair, post: 11995, member: 13"] So they should. The Aussies have very much played up the fact that the word "manuka" has been used in Australia as an occasional street name or place name, and are therefore claiming it as an Australian word rather than a uniquely NZ word. And presented the right way this may convince an arbitrator. The other problem is the Aussie government is bankrolling their legal fight, so they have a large war chest of money to spend on lawyers etc. Best I know our legal fight is being funded by some impoverished and struggling beekeepers.
