Currently, Auckland Council can regulate only fireworks being set off on public property.
In 2015 the National-led government received a petition signed by about 32,000 people calling for a ban, stating fireworks caused "unnecessary distress and injury" to people, animals and livestock.
The petition said firework seasons, such as Guy Fawkes and New Year's Eve, put huge pressure on emergency services through unnecessary fires, property damage and injuries.
However, the proposal, which was supported by the SPCA, SAFE and the NZ Veterinarians Association was rejected.
There were 516 fireworks-related injury claims in New Zealand in 2016.

I have a few hives in Omaha Flats Road Point Wells and there has been almost no honey flow this summer. I am interested if other beekeepers in the area have had a similar experience.
I’ll have enough honey to leave for the bees but none for the house.
Interested in other’s experience.

You certainly won't be allowed to forget about it.
