I wonder how this will effect the likes of ktm. Still a very 2 stroke orientated brand. They have also just released a fuel injected 2 stroke. Maybe it complies. I should say how this will effect ktm sales in that state alone as ktm itself wont really be effected but if their 2 strokes dont comply it could hurt the dealers. Even stihl dealers could feel the pinch.

Not true, it will effect pretty much everything 2 stroke, as it targets everything non-road.......
From the environment websitee
"The Australian Government is working to introduce national emission standards for non-road spark ignition engines and equipment (NRSIEE), such as garden equipment, generators, pumps and marine engines. By regulating the import and supply of high-emitting NRSIEE in Australia, air pollution from these products will be reduced and significant health benefits will be realised.
The Update Paper provides an update on how the new emission standards will be implemented, including their linkage to international standards, when they are likely to come into force, which NRSIEE products they will apply to and what requirements will be placed on importers and suppliers of these products to the Australian market.
The paper also aims to raise awareness of the incoming emission standards so that businesses and individuals can be prepared when they come into effect. This includes suppliers who will need to ensure they are sourcing compliant models."

It will be interesting to see how they design a 4 stroke chainsaw engine that can work on all angles and upside down. Imagine a piston smashing into the sump oil, unless it is a dry sump arrangement.
My advice is: not to follow my advice.

This would be my main concern. Don't think they could make a 4 stroke chainsaw with enough grunt that was light enough to hang on to for a few hours either.

Someone was saying their 4 stroke snipper ironically uses oil in the fuel mix , not sure how you can make a light weight four stroke chainsaw but one things for sure the service dept of these suppliers will be flat out which is exactly what the head of one of the industry chiefs has said openly .

If it is industry driven, then it is all about selling us more crap. Like banning incandescent bulbs and forcing us to buy over-price, mini flouros that cause more environmental damage to manufacture, then die a premature death and poison us when broken.
The way I would do it, is to design the chain oil to act as a lubricant for the bearings then onto the chain. Maybe inject a tiny bit for the rings.
Heard it here first folks, gimme some money if you decide to patent the idea. LOL

OK for gearboxes but an internal combustion engine always has a minute amount of carbon escape past the rings on each firing stroke. That is why the oil eventually goes black.
