Te Kowhai News January out now
Hi all
A little delayed, but better late than never. And a non-COVID related reason for the delay, just for something different. I guess that's what happens when you run something off the smell of an oily rag and a very lean team of volunteers: when one person gets ill, production grinds to a halt.
Pleased to say that we are all back up and running and using a new printer! Eeek! A leap of faith but it's one I hope paid off.
If you also receive a printed version of the publication, give it some scrutiny and let me know your feedback: good, bad but preferably constructive.
Happy new year to you all. May this year be one of positive growth and momentum.
Regards
Amanda and the team at Te Kowhai News

Could the jury service process be improved?
Every year, thousands of New Zealanders are called up to serve as jurors in the High and District Courts, and it's an important way to contribute to your country.
But for some, jury service can be a huge disruption and a financial burden. Do you think changes could be made to our jury service system to address these challenges?
Poll: Should Hamilton City Council shrink the number of councillors?
A political bunfight is brewing over moves to cut councillor numbers on Hamilton City Council.
Potential mayoral candidate Tim Macindoe, supported by four others, has asked Thursday’s meeting to agree to a representation report that covers replacing the current east-west split with one city-wide ward.
It also seeks consideration of cutting representative numbers from 15 - including 12 general councillors spread over two wards, two Māori ward representatives and the mayor - to 11.
