The Spousal Deduction Petition has been extended to May 10th. Your support is appreciated.

Donna from Pyes Pa

Repealing Section 70 of the Social Security Act 2018.
We believe this law adversely affects those in a permanent relationship with a person who has an overseas pension; that a couple is not treated as individuals but as an 'economic unit', with the New Zealander then finding they lose most, if not all, of their superannuation which is an 'individual entitlement'. This form of means testing can cause not just a monetary loss but a loss of independence. This puts a strain on relationships and affects people's emotional and physical health. www.parliament.nz...

Shame on You!

Lisa from Otumoetai

This is what greeted workers at Brookfield Sallies yesterday morning. All of it looks like it should have gone straight to the tip, which is what the Sallies will now have to pay to do. Surely whoever does this has no conscience. The Sallies do an amazing job of helping people in times of need and they don't need to be spending any money they receive on doing your dirty work, especially at this time of year.
