Seven-storey building offering medical services good for Christchurch?
Hey Cantabs,
A large health facility with procedure rooms and luxury recovery suites is proposed for a prominent site in Christchurch's health precinct.
The application proposes two levels of medical facilities and three levels of guest accommodation “proposed to function as luxury recovery rooms” for procedures done on the lower floors.
Huadu International NZ chief executive Aaron Boddington said the company was excited to develop the project, but declined to answer questions on when the facility would be built, who would operate it and how much it would cost.

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)
