Poll: Do you think speeds around South Waikato should be reduced?

Nicola Brennan-Tupara Reporter from South Waikato News

Hi neighbours,
Mayor Jenny Shattock says a proposed plan to significantly reduce Waikato road speed limits would cripple the South Waikato District's economy.
The plan would see town centre speed limits to 30kmh, urban residential area to 40kmh, local and rural roads to between 60kmh and 80kmh, and an interim 90kmh limit on "economically important state highways and rural arterial roads" until they are engineered to an appropriate standard.

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
