Poll: Do you use Manage My Health?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Victims of the Manage My Health hack were notified at just after 7pm on Thursday night of exactly what elements of their health data had been stolen, nine days after the hack happened.

Manage My Health holds data on about 1.8 million Kiwis, and has been in crisis since December 30, with hackers demanding a ransom of more than $100,000 for more than 400,000 health files belonging to about 127,000 people.

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?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Derelict Tokanui Hospital buildings will be demolished and contaminated land cleaned up so the site can be offered back to iwi.

The former psychiatric hospital, southeast of Te Awamutu, sits on land taken from Ngāti Maniapoto under the Public Works Act in 1910.
