The annual refugee quota will lift from 1000 to 1500 by July 2020, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced this week. Before 2016 the refugee quota sat static at 750 for 30 years, well behind many other western nations. The National Government then raised it to 1000. Is it enough?

From next month, the regulations can mean fines for dog owners who don't have their pooches restrained on moving vehicles. Dogs on the back of a truck, trailer or ute, travelling on a public road, had to be tied up with a leash or rope, if not in a cage or crate.
Those caught breaking that law could be fined up to $900 under new Animal Welfare Regulations from next month. Read more from Stuff here

Earlier this year I had to retire after nine plus years at Ara as my Advanced prostate cancer had deteriated and now I am undergoing Chemo treatment. Last week I had my 6th dose out of 10 and fortunately there is still no nausea, so will continue with the remaining four for now, hence my involvement of the Prostate Foundation.
For your information about 3,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer annually, and about 600 men die of it, each year”
This is compared with slightly less numbers for Women with breast cancer and I noticed that around 25 men a year also are diagnosed with breast cancer also.
The Prostate Cancer foundation advocates that all males over the age of 50 should get an annual PSA Blood or digital examination and male members of families where another male has PC then they need to be tested from 40 years onward, once a year.
There are still some Doctors in NZ that don’t follow this recommendation and the PC Foundation is working on changing that.
If you would like to talk to Chris Jones to discuss his ride and ask questions about men’s awareness of PC, his contact details are cell phone 027 435 4523.
In this next entry in Neighbourly I will post information about a Pedal4Prostate - Chris Jones V.P. ride that Chris Jones (VP of PC Foundation) of Ch Ch is undertaking on Sunday 23rd September to raise money and awareness on PC. He is riding all the way to Hampton Downs in Auckland, a 1200KM journey and he is seeking support by people riding with him to Rangiora and Culverden or sponsoring him on his ride.
Prostate Cancer Foundation meetings are:
The PC Foundation has two support groups in Christchurch and one now in Rangiora. Husbands and wives all are welcome
Meeting details are:

Canterbury road policing manager Inspector Ash Tabb said that while Fendalton Rd was not usually a hot-spot for boy racers, it was a closely-watched issue in the city.
“Canterbury police have a dedicated team which liaises with the car enthusiasts group, and uses education and enforcement intervention to change behaviour,” he said.
