I was wondering how many people in Nelson are aware that the Government has put in a low ball offer to buy our 3 waters infrastructure.This offer ( it won't be raised) is approximately 10% of its value.

If this Govt. gets its hands on our water etc it will be run by 4 Water Authorities, the boundaries for these 4 Authorities are drawn up as are the Maori Tribal Boundaries, who will be handed our water supply for free( Govt. is paying) as a joint Maori/Govt. entity. Do you think you will be paying more or paying less per litre for your own water.??
The most disturbing thing is, the NCC 's CEO and the Mayor are on the Govts. 3 waters working party. Is this a conflict of interest??
The Mayor was elected to look after the best interests of all Nelsonians and their infrastructure. I would have thought since water is our life blood it would be the very last thing you would ever sell at a marked down price. Think it's about time the Mayor and CEO were a bit more transparent and tell the people of Nelson which way they are voting. It is in the Local Body Act that any Council selling a large asset, in this case one that has been bought by the ratepayers/users over many generations, that they have to consult at length with the ratepayers and all. Therefore, surely such a big decision should go to a referendum rather than some deal done behind closed doors as has happened in the past.

Competenz has recently launched a new micro-credential to improve the level of digital literacy in the manufacturing sector.
"With an aging workforce it’s imperative we enable companies to keep their tradesmen and craftsmen,” says Jahn Vannisselroy, Competenz Sector Manager. “This micro-credential, which we can tailor to a specific company, is giving people the confidence to meet technology head-on.”
The qualification is fully funded under the government’s Targeted Training and Apprenticeship Fund (TTAF) for employers who enrol their staff before 31 December 2022.

The Mapua Movie mogul says about this mystery movie:
Military Wives follows a group of women who're left behind on the home front in England while their partners are serving in Afghanistan. Using the joy of music to help them cope with the absence of their partners, Gareth Malone a World famous Choir master assists the women to organise the very first choir.
Managed by Kate (Thomas) and Lisa (Horgan), who possess extremely conflicting personalities and objectives, the choir steadily acquires widespread media attention that results in the formation of an influential global choir movement.
Cattaneo's film focuses on the relationship shared between these women, each of whom have their own burdens to bear in the face of such uncertain adversity. Much of the films strength comes from the sincerity of the performances, particularly leads Kristin Scott Thomas and Sharon Horgan, who clash repeatedly throughout the film.
Tunnard and Flynn's screenplay accomplishes a combination of both humour and tragedy in a way that never feels superficial, and although it is clear to see where it is all going to go, it's difficult not to become invested in the journey. This is a heartfelt film that is both uplifting and emotional, with standout performances and a truly brilliant final song. I think you are really going to enjoy your Mystery movie night .
It is only 12 dollars a person to see this movie and the net income goes towards the Mapua Hall.
The movie starts at 6:30pm, doors open at 6:15. Bring your own chair, nibbles and drinks and enjoy a drink or a snack at the Sprig and Fern opposite the hall.
