Right to Repair petition

James from Waikanae

Consumer NZ has organized a petition for the Right To Repair.
You know how annoying it is when you have to throw something away because it is impossible to repair it. It forces you to buy another item to replace it and the old one goes to the tip.
This can't go on.
Sign the petition here
