You can arrive at any time during the sessions, but be warned, you’ll be so engrossed and having fun that you should plan to stay for the whole time!

What does "Consultation" mean to you?

I'm standing as a candidate in the Local Body elections for the Greater Wellington Regional Council. I want to get your views and opinions about what 'consultation' means to you.

It seems very clear to me that the word 'consultation' has a different meaning for our politicians than what it does for the rest of us. I believe that our views should inform Council decisions and that all decisions should be based on fact and reason. That's why I've decided if I am elected as your representative on the Council I will not engage in any 'show-pony' consultation.
Can you tell me:
1. What genuine consultation means to you? and
2. How should our Council consult so as to better reflect our diverse opinions and views?

I would love to know your views!

We're selling our house and can't take our lovely cat with us to the Marlborough Sounds. So we're looking for a home that'll love her as much as we do. She's the sweetest cat who loves cuddles and will smooch up for ages. She's also awesome at catching rats and mice which you'd never guess just by looking at her. We got her from the cat protection league when she was about 1-ish, and we've had her about 3-4 years. We'll miss her so much and want to find the perfect home where she'll be loved as much as she is now. Could she be a new member of your home?
