Porirua is the most expensive place in NZ to own a dog

Reporter Sunday Star Times

Oscar, Cotton and Diesel are three pricey pups.
Porirua City, where the trio lives, is the country's most expensive place to register a dog and it's not something their owner John Holmes is happy about.
Porirua tops the national list at $126 for yearly registration, more than four times as expensive as Southland, where it costs just $30 per pup.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
