Council told it can either increase rates or increase debt

Skara Bohny Reporter from The Nelson Mail

Nelson City Council is contemplating raising rates next year by 5.9% rather than 5.7% as it originally proposed, otherwise it will be funding operational expenditure with debt (generally speaking a big no-no). Is that sustainable for your household?

Decisions won't be made until Thursday afternoon.

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
