Poll: Is the Government doing enough to stop recyclable materials going to landfill?
The Government has thrown $124 million at reducing the country’s growing waste pile, but not everyone agrees that’s enough.

In the last decade, the amount of waste at council landfills has increased by 48 per cent.

Good Warm Home Loan ANZBank
Just advising that anyone who is renovating should apply first this loan - even if they don’t need it. With the escalating costs AND hidden problems that you may come across you can go well over your budget and find this 1% interest loan useful. It is for 3 years and specifically targets items like double glazing
You don’t see this Ioan on the front page of there website and have to read carefully terms ad conditions.
If anyone has had success in getting their loan halfway through their renovation I would love to hear from you
