Toilet paper trail that's raising a stink
February 8th, 2010
A LONG-RUNNING battle in Australia's toilet paper industry has taken another twist, with the federal government overturning a previous ruling to prevent the import of thousands of tonnes of cheap loo paper from China and Indonesia.
The offending paper, mainly sold in the form of the Select brand at Woolworths supermarkets, undercut the Australian product by up to 40 per cent. Tens of millions of the bargain-basement rolls were sold.
