The actual date of Matariki will move but is expected to always fall on a Friday or Monday.
The first day off will be Friday June 24 in 2022.
Government advice suggests the new Matariki public holiday will cost businesses between $377 - $448 million.
But that advice does not include any potential economic benefits from the new public holiday, set to be introduced from next year.
The estimated cost has come under fire from ACT leader David Seymour who said the public holiday amounted to a tax on business.
Seymour suggested that the Government get rid of another public holiday to make way for Matariki.

Single Bed Solid Oak frames with slats
These lovely old (1950’s) matching pair of solid oak bed frames are delightful. Great as children’s beds or use in smaller rooms as single guest beds. Potential to paint and make more modern or keep in original style.

Great as children’s beds or use in smaller rooms as single guest beds. Potential to paint and make more modern or keep in original style. Excellent condition and they are made from solid wood and with heavy steel runners.
We had them for our kids and now they’re grown up, so no need anymore. We made the slats ourselves from old decking wood (these would originally have had wire sprung bases attached to the steel runners) and the slats worked well. All that’s needed is a mattress on the top. (We have 1 very old mattress available, which if you want you can have for free).
Prefer to sell as pair for $100 but would consider selling separately for $65 each.

Pick up in Mount Eden. They are dismantled now, so easy to transport in a car.
