Thanks mike - easy to see why I think this species should be taken off the allowed plant list

Gleditsia is planted as a street tree in several Canberra suburbs. Some are so-called thornless varieties but these can also grow spines or have spiny progeny. Classified as a restricted invasive plant in Queensland, see https://www.daf.qld.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0004/58918/IPA-Honey-Locust-PP47.pdf
