Arms Act Rewrite Public Consultation Closes in 10 Days
Arms Act Rewrite Public Consultation Closes in 10 Days
You have until midnight of Friday 28 March to make your submission. Here is the link:
consultations.justice.govt.nz...
It is important that the public make their submission because if you don’t the pro-gun lobby group COLFO (Council of Licenced Firearms Owners) will steam-roll the submissions process.
COLFO has three or four key objectives: Abolish the Firearms Registry, remove authority for the management of the Firearms Safety Authority from the Police, to the Ministry of Justice, make it easier for applicants to get a firearms licence by relaxing the vetting process, re-introduce semi-automatic centre-fire rifles.
If you are OK with semi-automatic centre-fire rifles being re-introduced, then there is nothing for you to do.
If the thought of semi-automatic centre-fire rifles being once more available to the general public, the A Category licence holders, concerns you, then you need to make a submission. Also contact your MP to voice your concerns and write to the Ombudsmen.
If you are one of the 65,000 people who, in March 2019, signed the petition banning semi-automatic weapons, you need to visit the Ministry of Justice website and re-affirm your commitment.

Further important update to all Neighbourly members
Dear Neighbours,
We wanted to update you with what we have uncovered in regards to the potential Neighbourly data breach which we were alerted to on Thursday January 1.
Over the past few days we have worked to understand whether our members’ data had been accessed without authorisation and, if so, the extent of the breach.
We have now confirmed that there was a breach of some data from our registered users. We are now satisfied that the breach was quickly contained, and we have restored the Neighbourly site and services.
Our investigations have shown that there was unauthorised access of Neighbourly data, which included our registered members’ names, email addresses, GPS coordinates, forum posts and member communications. It did not include passwords but some publicly advertised event and business addresses were included.
Following best practice, we will look to seek a court injunction against any use of the material.
We want to apologise to our members for this occurrence and any concerns it may have caused you over the past few days. We have, of course, addressed the issue that allowed the theft to occur, and we are satisfied that the site is secure for use by all of our members. We will work closely with all our staff to ensure we have the most robust processes in place to prevent it from happening again.
Thank you to our members who contacted us over this period and for the understanding you have shown as we work through the complex issues associated with cyber theft.
