Should choke-risk foods be banned from early childhood centres?
The Ministry of Education is considering a ban on choke-risk foods including sausages, chips and popcorn in early childhood centres.
It's said that under-fives are at higher risk of choking because they have small air and food passages and are still learning how to chew food.
What do you think? Should choke-risk foods be banned?
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
