Proposed status change to Ōtuataua Stonefields won't fix Ihumātao land dispute

Ryan Anderson Reporter from Manukau Courier

Hi Neighbours,

Heritage New Zealand is considering proposals to upgrade the status of the stonefields from a Category 2 historic place to a Category 1 historic place.

While this would expand the borders of the current protected area to cover Ihumātao - it won't stop the current development by Fletcher Buildings.

What do you think of the proposed change?

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.
