Westland Milk decision in Court of Appeal this week

26th October 2021 By Staff Reporter | news@foodticker.co.nz | @foodtickernz

An appeal related to the Overseas Investment Office decision to approve the sale of Westland Milk Products to Chinese conglomerate Yili is set to start on Wednesday.

The appeal is being brought by the Social Credit Party after its judicial review application was rejected by Justice Dobson in September last year.

Social Credit’s position is that the Overseas Investment Office applied the wrong legal test to the sale.
