After debate around whether Matariki should become a public holiday, ACT leader David Seymour said he was "open" to public holidays being scrapped in New Zealand - well, all but Anzac and Waitangi.

He says people should be able to make their own holiday arrangements, rather than the Government telling us when to take the day off.

We want to know your thoughts. Should people be able to make their own holiday arrangements? Or should we leave our holidays as is?

If you are a descendant of a John Logan, Basil Cotterill, Lillie Mills, or Frederick Wickens you could have your own slice of paradise.

An advertisement seeking potential owners of the six properties have been advertised in the Otago Daily Times this year. Public Trust head of marketing and partnerships Josh Byers said if no owner or descendant of the properties came forward within two weeks, the notice would then be added to gazette.govt.nz.

It is not too late for beneficiaries or descendants to make a claim once their property is sold. Find out more here.
