Crime and Punishment
Labour-Green coalition Government implemented its policy of lowering numbers in prisons and so sentences given have often reflected this.
National and ACT want to get tougher on crime whixh means increasing crims sent to prison and the dishing out of longer prison terms.
National-ACT also want to decrease Government spending.
But these two things are not necessarily compatible because more sent to prison and increased time spent in.a prison means the need for more prisons to be built. And that runs into hundreds of millions of dollars let alone finding prison staff. At present there are dozens of staff vacancies at Rimutaka Prison in Upper Hutt.

Advice please, declined house insurance cover
Looking for advice please. Has anyone had any issues reinsuring their homes. Our current house insurance went up by 11.5%, so I decided to get another quote. At the end of a very long phone with Tower, they declined to insurance us, saying our property is a landslide risk. I'm on Wyndham Road in Pinehaven. While the house is up off the street, the house itself and backyard are on the flat part of our section. Now - in the interest of full disclosure - I'm going to have to tell our current insurer too. I've rung the Council to see if they've updated their hazards mapping - and they said the only update has been to the Pinehaven Overflow. Have lived in this house since 2003, and insurance has never been an issue till now. TIA
