Timebands, Parental Locks and Classifications
Do you use free-to-air TV classifications like G, PGR and AO, or timebands like the 8.30pm watershed, to help decide what you, or children in your care, watch?
The Broadcasting Standards Authority are considering whether some changes should be made to timebands and programme classifications on free-to-air television and want to hear what you think.
We will be holding a public meeting in Christchurch where you can get more information and ask questions. It will be on Wednesday 22 August at Christchurch Community House from 10.30am-12.30pm, please register on our website if you plan to attend.
You can also find out what is being considered and give your feedback through our 5-10-minute online survey.
Email us at info@bsa.govt.nz or visit the website for more information.
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

-
59.3% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)

How much does it cost to join AEA?
There are no dues or fees for joining AEA or attending AEA meetings. We are self-supporting through our own voluntary contributions. At some point during each meeting we pass the basket to help cover expenses, such as the cost of rent and literature. Members are not obliged to contribute, but we usually do so to the extent we are able.
