A lot of what we're putting in our recycling bins cannot be recycled.
Paul Evans, chief executive of waste management industry body WasteMinz, says in 2018 about 10 per cent of each Auckland household's recycling bin was "contamination" – items that people had put in hoping for the best, but which could not be recycled.

These are among the issues detailed in a damning external audit of colonoscopy services and bowel cancer treatment times at the Southern District Health Board (SDHB). The SDHB commissioned the audit following years of complaints.
Authored by Christchurch physician Dr Phil Bagshaw and Dr Steven Ding, the audit found serious problems controlling bowel cancer and dysfunctional relationships between clinicians – an issue known to but unable to be resolved by senior management.

Under contract law, parking companies can only claim for "the actual and reasonable costs they incurred". Charging $65 for a short overstay in an empty carpark is as far from reasonable as you can get.

Hundreds of thousands of inexpensive items that pass through the retail giant's checkouts every year, so it's only to be expected there will be recalls – Kmart even has a recalls page on its website, and there are 31 products on the list.
The $55 timber Occasional Chair is the latest casualty, although this is a withdrawal rather than a recall. We don't know the reason for its withdrawal, except Kmart says it is for "a potential quality issue". But what other products have been found wanting?
