To be honest I dont think I would like to be the government that gets rid of the legislation, I personally feel that the technical aspect of nuclear power and weaponry now pales into insignificance compared to the emotive issues the law generates.

Basically the legislation means a lot more to New Zealand than just the laws that it passed.
