Our Monarch Butterfly is under threat and this National Gardening Week Kiwis are being called upon to plant butterfly friendly plants to help save the caterpillars when they hatch in Spring and Summer.

Last year saw a national shortage of Swan plants, the main diet of Monarch caterpillars, causing a large number of the population to be wiped out.

Yates is getting behind the drive to avert a similar crisis this year by giving away various free butterfly friendly seeds including Yates new Butterfly Field Mix seeds between 1st and 14th October. Just register here during this time to receive your packet of seeds.

A national planting day will be held on 20th October. Plant a Swan plant or other butterfly friendly plants in your garden, in your neighbour’s garden, at school, in your local community garden – and let’s help Monarch butterflies flourish.

National Gardening Week aims to foster a love of gardening with a focus on growing not only plants but friendships, good health, strong communities and closer connections with nature.

Public Meeting: Renting - Getting It Right

The Team from Deborah Russell, MP for New Lynn

On Tuesday 9 October at 7pm, I am hosting a Public Meeting with the Minister of Housing, Phil Twyford, on the proposed changes to the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 (the RTA).

The RTA is the main piece of legislation that regulates interactions between landlords and tenants. I invite you to come along to discuss:
• The government’s intention to make life better for people renting a home.
• How to ensure people renting are being treated fairly, are able to stay in their communities without being moved on unfairly, and have fair rent reviews.
• The updating of our antiquated tenancy laws, which don’t reflect the fact that renting is now a long-term reality for many of our families.
• How a lack of tenure is particularly tough on children whose education suffers when they have to keep changing schools.
• Our commitment to striking a balance between providing tenants with security of tenure and allowing them to make their house a home while protecting the rights and interests of landlords.
We will also have submission forms to help you make a written submission on the proposed changes. To read more, or make an online submission go to: www.hud.govt.nz...
