STRUGGLING TO PAY YOUR POWER BILL?
Contact your energy provider as soon as possible. This is especially important if you are on a low income, or someone in the household has a health condition, is very young or very old, or is medically dependent on the mains power supply to your home.
Your energy provider may discuss your payment plan with you, suggest an alternative pricing plan, advise you of agencies who can help with budgeting or refer you to Work and Income (with your consent). If you are on a low income, you might be eligible for help with paying your bill.

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)
.
