Poll: Do you think trespass notices work?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

They can land you three months in jail or a $1000 fine, more than 400,000 of them have been issued in the past decade but according to women’s safety advocates - they’re not worth the paper they’re written on.

In the wake of the Government’s proposed new anti-stalking laws, the Waikato Times spoke to advocates - and a stalking victim - who all share the same view on Trespass Notices.

Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.

But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.
