North Shore cemetery plaques get facelift
Ninety four loose plaques have been secured at North Shore Memorial Park in Auckland.
Veterans' Affairs spent $5,675 repairing the memorial tablets at the cemetery on Auckland's North Shore.
More than $480,000 from the Veterans’ Affairs memorial fund has gone towards headstones and plaques for veterans with qualifying service this year.
Another $170,000 from the organisation's capital works fund has been used to build new berms, install new seating, secure or replace damaged headstones in cemeteries across New Zealand.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
