Reaction to pulp mill plan on TV
A top British television producer, Linda McDougall, and her husband, Austin Mitchell, have been in Nelson this week filming public reaction to the C.S.R. Baigent pulp mill proposal, Mr Mitchell, well known in New Zealand as an author, television commentater, and political scientist, is the reporter for the 30-minute documentary for TV2’s ‘‘eye-witness" programme on August 21. The couple have been in New Zealand two weeks, hut it has been a hectic time preparing and filming for the documentary which examines the S6OM pulp Mill project, possible sites, and the arguments for and against. On Wednesday they were in Eves Valley, near Brigjitwater, a possible site for the mill, interviewing a farmer, Mr Henry O’Hara, who was opposed to the project and said he probably would not sell his land to the consortium.
