INSURANCE

Jill Smith from Citizens Advice Bureau Far North (CAB)

This month's feature is about INSURANCE.

According to a Financial Services Council 2022 survey, around 70% of New Zealanders were underinsured. And more recently it has been reported that far too many New Zealanders are cancelling their cover altogether, putting themselves and their dependents at risk.

We hope the links provided in this post help you decide what kind of insurance policy is relevant to your situation.

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
