How to serve trespass notice?

Hira Siddiqui from Citizens Advice Bureau Pakuranga/Eastern Manukau

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ You can trespass someone verbally or in writing. A written a trespass notice is useful in case of any dispute over whether you trespassed someone.

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ You can use a template to create a trespass notice:
To serve a trespass notice in writing, you need to write the trespassed person a notice warning them that you do not allow them to enter the property and will call the Police if they do. You can use the template on the police website: www.police.govt.nz... or one on the Community Law website: communitylaw.org.nz...

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ You need three copies of the trespass notice:
You will need three copies. That is, one copy each for you, the person being trespassed, and the Police.

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ Deliver a copy of the trespass notice to the trespassed person:
You or an attending Police officer can give the trespassed person the notice in person, or you can post the notice to their address. The Trespass Act 1980 does not allow you to deliver a trespass notice by email or other electronic form.
If you try to deliver the notice in person and the trespasser lets it fall to the ground (refuses to accept it) you can still consider it served. Keep their copy and write on it that they refused to accept it.

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ Deliver a copy of the trespass notice to the Police:
The two ways to deliver the Police copy of the trespass notice are:
* Report a non-emergency report to the police online:
www.police.govt.nz... and attach an electronic copy of the trespass notice.
* If a Police officer is present when you give the notice to the trespassed person, you can give the Police copy to the attending Police officer.

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ The NZ Police website has more information about serving a Trespass Notice: www.police.govt.nz...

Poll: How important is the ability to book a doctorโ€™s appointment online?

The Doctors

Hi Neighbours
Here at The Doctors we would love to hear how you prefer to book your doctorโ€™s appointments. With busy schedules, different people find different methods easier.

For some, online booking is very convenient, you can make an appointment anytime without needing to wait on the phone. Others still prefer calling the clinic and speaking to a real person, especially if they have specific questions about their visit.

Your feedback helps us understand what works best for our patients and how we can improve access to care.
