There's industry celebrations over a directive to use Kiwi wool in Government buildings.  New builds worth more than $9 million and refurbishments costing over $100,000 must use wool where possible from July, meeting a Coalition deal. In January, housing agency Kainga Ora reversed its price-based decision to not use dearer wool products Campaign for Wool's general manager, Kara Biggs, says she's ecstatic. "It will start to create more and more demand - so growers, manufacturers, brands, they will all reap the financial benefits from this decision today."
