Finish date set for Hutt hotel

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

The long running saga of the council subsidised hotel in High St may be coming to an end.
Developer Raman Sarin says the hotel will be finished by the end of the year. He recently signed a new deal with the council, committing his company to finishing the hotel and continuing to run the events centre.
What are your thoughts on the hotel? Was it a good idea for the council to get involved?

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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)
.
