Could the jury service process be improved?
Every year, thousands of New Zealanders are called up to serve as jurors in the High and District Courts, and it's an important way to contribute to your country.
But for some, jury service can be a huge disruption and a financial burden. Do you think changes could be made to our jury service system to address these challenges?
What do you think of the regional council rate rise?
One frustrated councillor walked out of a meeting before regional councillors set rates, and another didn’t vote in “protest”.
Regional councillors have agreed by a thin 7 for and 5 against margin to put forward a 2024-34 long term plan for adoption, exposing particular divisions over the higher-than-suggested rates rise for next year: 7.4%.

Hamilton’s mayor wants to cut a 19.9% rates increase proposed for next year - and she’d support selling some city council asset sales to help.
Paula Southgate said she wants to pull the increase back towards the originally proposed 16.3%, which would be challenging but could make a $100-a-year difference for the average Hamilton home.
