Watercare and water leaks
For almost seven months, I have been asking Watercare to fix a potable water leak outside 20 Alderman Drive in Henderson. Today the dams are at 59%. The historical average is 84%. We may have severe water restrictions this summer and yet Watercare doesn't seem to be efficient about fixing leaks. This week I got a text from them saying the leak had been fixed, and yet it is still leaking, possibly creating a pothole in the road and making the footpath slippery. Is the proposed 3 Waters thing going to make a positive difference?
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)
.
