Poll: Should bus drivers be allowed to self-enforce social distancing rules?

Jake Kenny Reporter from Community News

Bus commuters have been passed at bus stops in Christchurch as some drivers adopt a harder line on level 2 social distancing.

With capacity on buses reduced due to social distancing requirements, some Christchurch users have reported delays and passengers being left behind because there was not enough room.

A Christchurch commuter said "some bus drivers care about how many are on the bus and some don't".

Do you think it's okay that bus drivers self-enforce social distancing?

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
