Cheques are checking out!
Kāpiti Coast District Council is reminding people that it is phasing out cheques.
Cheques are checking out! Banks in New Zealand are phasing out the use of the payment method which means we will no longer be able to take cheques for rates or services. From 15 June this year we will no longer be accepting cheques. There are loads of other ways to make payments, like direct debit, EFTPOS or internet banking, but we realise this change may be disconcerting for some. Help is available through our friendly service centre team, or by contacting SeniorNet. Visit kapiticoast.govt.nz/online-payments for more info.

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)
