Security cameras in youth centre - necessary or a breach of privacy?

Reporter Marlborough Express

Hi neighbours - a new youth centre in Marlborough has security cameras in "all main areas with youth activities", including counsellor rooms, in a bid to increase "safety and security" of young people.

The cameras in "private places" can be switched off, and only a few select people have access.

Do you think this security is necessary, or is it a breach of privacy?

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

We require some to mow some of our lawns for the next few weeks while I recuperate after surgery.
