Poisoning of Cats in your Neighbourhood
Hello Pet Lovers I have received the email below. If you sent a submission and indicated a wish to be heard here is the information. There has to be publicity about this. The application to poison cats very close to our homes has been submitted by a poisons manufacturer. It is a very cynical and purely a business decision. They want a reply by 19th Feb 2019. The very short time to confirm is further of concern!
......On 12/04/2018, the EPA had an application APP202879 -PredaSTOP for feral cats containing 410g/kg PAPP (Para-aminopropiophenone) opened for public submissions.
Please use below link to access information on the EPA website.
www.epa.govt.nz...
The EPA has tentatively scheduled the hearing between 1st April to 12th April for this application APP202879.
As a submitter who requested to be heard, can you please confirm that you still wish to appear at the hearing to speak to your submission the hearing will only be one or two days in total, out of this two week period and a confirmed date and time will be set soon.
Please reply to this email address by Monday 19th Feb 2019..........
Kind regards,

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