I discovered yesterday that the Public Trust charges $1350 plus the High Court $50 fee, to reseal in New Zealand a grant of probate or letters of administration made in the UK or Australia.

I was a tad surprised.
This is a straightforward process, nowhere near as complicated as applying from scratch for a grant of administration in New Zealand.
I charge $390 all up, including the High Court fee and mail/courier costs. And that is consistent with my overall guideline hourly rate of $300+GST. (I have no idea what other lawyers charge.) Just letting you know, in case you know someone who needs to know....

Coop and small feeder in very used condition but still does the job!
1 hen is about 1 year old, the other 2 are close to 3 years old. I think they are all laying but they might stop soon while they moult. They are reasonably friendly but have been free ranging.

1 hen is about 1 year old, the other 2 are close to 3 years old. I think they are all laying but they might stop soon while they moult. They are reasonably friendly but have been free ranging. All three have been recently treated with Avermectin for internal and external parasites, and were vaccinated as chicks against Marek's disease.
I would like them to go to a good home. Only selling due to downsizing our flock before we move.
Pick up Rangiora.

Our littlest people need your help. Poverty doesn’t start at 5, but until now there’s been no nationwide programme to help preschoolers who are hungry and cold.
KidsCan is changing that. They’re delivering raincoats, shoes and five fresh meals a week to 25 early childhood centres. Attendance is up, and the children are happier and more settled.
"Everyone has the same meal so children don't feel like they have less," Manaia View Kindergarten teacher Kathy Belz says. "It's upholding everyone's mana.”
40 more centres are waiting for help. KidsCan, Stuff and Neighbourly have partnered up to raise enough money to support 1000 more children - and we need 400 more generous Kiwis to hold little hands. To support a child, sign up at KidsCan.org.nz
