The legacy of people taken into state care who suffered neglect and abuse is a stain on our country’s history. Over the next three years, the Royal Commission will listen to stories about the experiences of people in state care and examine ways to stop any further abuse.

Before that process can begin, the Terms of Reference to define the scope and purpose of the Inquiry need to be set. Sir Anand would like to hear your views on the draft Terms of Reference so we can work together to make sure we don’t repeat the mistakes of the past.

Only flush the 3P's

The Team from Wellington Water

It's amazing the sorts of things we find blocking wastewater pumps.

A pager? A walkie talkie? What do you think it is?

It's amazing the sorts of things we find blocking wastewater pumps.

A pager? A walkie talkie? What do you think it is?

One thing we do know is it should not be flushed down the loo! These types of items cause blockages in the wastewater network. They can also cause blockages and damage to the pipes within your property boundary, which can cost you a lot in plumber bills to fix!

The only things that should be flushed down the toilet are the 3 P's:
-Pee
-Poo
-Paper (toilet paper that is)

Wet wipes (even 'flushable' ones), sanitary items, shampoo and conditioner bottles, diapers etc should be thrown in the rubbish bin, and phones/pagers should be taken out of back pockets before heading into the dunny.

Harcourts NZ has been awarded a Reader’s Digest Quality Service Gold award in real estate sales.

The annual awards are decided via a robust survey by market research agency, Catalyst. Fifteen hundred respondents were asked to nominate a service provider in up to 41 categories, including real estate sales. To qualify to vote on a category, respondents must have used a service provider from that industry.

Harcourts CEO Chris Kennedy says winning the award is a great validation of the high value its sales consultants place on offering great service to clients, culminating in a great sales result, and of the hard work they do to achieve that.

“It is really satisfying to know the public recognise the expertise and high service offered by our team.
“The Gold Quality Service Award sits nicely alongside the Reader’s Digest Most Trusted Award we’ve held since 2013.”

Readers Digest says it is confident that the results of this annual poll are the truly accurate measurement of New Zealand consumer sentiment in 2018.
