Residents on this supply need to use boiled tap water or store-bought bottled water for drinking, cleaning teeth, making ice, washing dishes and preparing food until further notice. Tap water should be boiled on a rolling boil for one minute.
The supply is chlorinated but it is important that water used for drinking, cleaning teeth, making ice, washing dishes and preparing food is brought to a rolling boil before use. Stored water and ice should be disposed of. Un-boiled water is fine for showering in, watering plants, washing cars etc.

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)
