Poll: Do you support making Matariki a public holiday?
The Matariki cluster will send Aotearoa a new public holiday next year.
The actual date of Matariki will move but is expected to always fall on a Friday or Monday.
The first day off will be Friday June 24 in 2022.
Government advice suggests the new Matariki public holiday will cost businesses between $377 - $448 million.
But that advice does not include any potential economic benefits from the new public holiday, set to be introduced from next year.
The estimated cost has come under fire from ACT leader David Seymour who said the public holiday amounted to a tax on business.
Seymour suggested that the Government get rid of another public holiday to make way for Matariki.

Benefits of foot reflexology for aged care
Foot reflexology has benefits for any she but particularly for older men and women because of its ability to gently initiate healing and connections to body parts thst would be hard and impossible to touch directly.
The reflex areas we find in the feet have a direct influence on the corresponding parts of the body and by rubbing and holding and various other techniques we can initiate healing for those areas without touching them.
At Balance for life our reflexology sessions also include Reiki healing and if requested a personal flower essence and guided meditation to finish the 30-45 min sessions.
🔹Chronic Pain: Reflexology may be extremely supportive in breaking the pain cycle in aging muscles and joints.
🔹Stress: Older people are not immune to stress, so reflexology may still be a effective way to calm the central nervous system.
🔹Anxiety & Depression: The time, care and nurturing touch that a reflexologist offers is ideal for the older client.
🔹Insomnia & Fatigue: Reflexology is known for its support for people who have disrupted sleep patterns. And a good nights sleep means less daytime fatigue and better health.
🔹 Digestive Issues: Aging, coupled with possibly a more sedentary life style, can cause immense digestive discomfort. A reflexology practitioner can focus more attention to the CNS and the reflexes of the digestive system to support this discomfort.
🔹Side effects from medication: As people get older they often require more medication. This medication often brings uncomfortable side effects. Reflexology offers a great tool to support normal bodily function.
Now there are many more benefits but I think this is plenty for today… if you like to book or have questions please send me a message.
