Thou shall not eat whale

The SST has the Government condemning any government official who eats whale overseas.

Now I’m a fan of the big fellas myself and quite happy with the NZ Government position to support a ban of them being hunted commercially (until numbers are sustainable).

However don’t we have to be a bit careful about specifying what people can or can not eat overseas?

I am sure the Government disapproves of coal mines because they contribute to global warming (allegedly) which the Government is against. Does this mean NZ Goverment staff members overseas can not visit a coal mine or stay somewhere powered by coal?

The Government si against all nuclear power. Does this mean government staff can not stay in locations overseas with nuclear power?
