You will need to follow the rules for protecting kauri if you:
- Go into a kauri forest area
- Grow kauri plants/trees
- Have kauri on your property
- Own farm animals/stock that graze in or near a kauri forest
Together we can protect kauri. Find out what you can do

Should pets be allowed on Public Transport? I am totally opposed to pets on trains or buses as I am allergic. Also who will be policing the rules around pets on the bus or train? Haven’t the drivers got enough to do? If the pets make a mess who will ensure the owners clean it up? It will create a… View moreShould pets be allowed on Public Transport? I am totally opposed to pets on trains or buses as I am allergic. Also who will be policing the rules around pets on the bus or train? Haven’t the drivers got enough to do? If the pets make a mess who will ensure the owners clean it up? It will create a hygiene issue for other passengers and young children in particular. Cats carry diseases in their faeces.

Petrol prices across Auckland are varying drastically, with a 61 cent per litre difference between the cheapest and the priciest.

With the fuel tax subsidy finishing at the end of June, the cost of filling up is set to rise for everyone. But why is there such a major disparity in Tāmaki Makaurau?
RNZ visited Costco in West Auckland, where fuel costs are among the cheapest in the region. One motorist, Jake, was filling up not just his car but also three 10-litre tanks for his other vehicles. He said he visits the 27-pump petrol station twice a week.
On June 14, unleaded 91 was $2.11 per litre and diesel was $1.62. Only those with a $60 Costco annual membership can access the pumps.
Silverdale farmer Steve was also there to fill his truck and several 20-litre containers.
“I fill up for farm fuel as well as diesel for my truck. It’s the cheapest in town, so why wouldn’t you?”
Another driver, Brent, often made a 100km round trip from his home in Milldale to his workplace in Avondale, going via Costco in Westgate for fuel. He told RNZ the drive was worth it for the “massive difference” in petrol prices.
Less than five minutes drive away in Henderson, a Mobil station charges 44 cents more than Costco, with unleaded 91 fetching $2.55/L and $2.02 for diesel.
One driver, Ben, said he tried to buy petrol in South Auckland where prices are more affordable. He said fuel costs make it hard to cope.
“We’re all broke,” he told RNZ.
A glimpse at petrol prices around Auckland:
===================================
Z, Te Atatu Peninsula - unleaded 91: $2.52, diesel: $2.02
BP, Herne Bay - unleaded 91: $2.55, diesel: $2.04
BP, Northcote - unleaded 91: $2.44, diesel: $1.96
