Industry Pollution Prevention
For the last couple of years, the Kaipatiki Local Board has been funding a successful education & inspection programme to prevent pollution into our streams from businesses. Previously the programme has worked with businesses on Enterprise St, Birkenhead, and the Bay Park Pl/Kahika Rd industrial area in Beach Haven.
This past year, the programme has moved to Wairau Valley businesses where it is gaining a positive response and helping to clean up the waterways that lead to Milford Beach. We will soon be discussing extending this programme into the next financial year. #CleanStreams

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)
.
