Overseas taxing on items
I hope the government will decide against this as the only place we can get shoes for my 16yr old son is eBay as he is a size 19. They cost enough as it is with exchange rate and shipping. If the government puts the extra tax on items, well needless to say I will need to rob a bank just to buy shoes!!!And when a nz store wants to charge $120 for a healing book and I can get it for $46nzd from the UK and free shipping, which one do you think I would pay for.......Yes we are a tiny country and cannot provide for every person, but there should be allowances for people when NZ doesn't provide the items they need.. e.g. large shoes!!

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)
.
