Exactly. Perenties at least would be pricey and captive bred in the private sector. Niles and Waters desperately need regulations, I'm more worried about those... At the same time care should be taken that the regulations don't go overboard. A more pricey import process and permit systems. You can't go too far or you will just turn it into a black market.
In my opinion the best option would be a permit process similar to the one that Florida has for venomous snakes. The way it works is you pay a fee of $100 and spend 1,000 hours training with someone who has a permit. Then you are entered into the system, and you must undergo biannual inspections as well as keep them updated on what species you currently own.
The only modification I would make is to decrease it to around 100 training hours, but other than that it would work well.
