Friendly Forum with Tim Macindoe MP - Friday 19 June 2020
It is a privilege to represent you in Parliament, and as your local MP I am always keen to hear your views and ideas.
As you may know I regularly host Friendly Forums in the South Waikato and other parts of the electorate. This provides me with an opportunity to meet with you face to face, to hear your thoughts and concerns, and to share information on matters of interest.
Unfortunately my father passed away over the weekend which means that I am unable to be at the Friendly Forum myself this week. My fantastic colleague Tim Macindoe, MP for Hamilton West, has kindly offered to fill in on my behalf. I'm sorry I can't be there in person to catch up with you!
Nevertheless I would like to invite you to the next forum in Putaruru.
Date: Friday 19 June 2020
Time: 10.00am – 11.30am
Venue: The Plaza, 50 Kensington Street, Putaruru
RSVP: Angie Hendricks on (07) 886 5554 or upston.sthwaikato@parliament.govt.nz or by clicking on the following link:

I hope you can make it along to the Friendly Forum and meet with Tim.
Sincerely
Louise Upston
Member of Parliament for Taupō

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)
.
