Statement on water fluoridation
đ§ Whangarei District Council has continued its position against putting fluoride into the districtâs water supply.
At an extra-ordinary Council Meeting on Wednesday, the Council voted to seek a declaration proceeding, which is a hearing where the court would be presented with evidence on the safety or otherwise of fluoride, from scientific experts, and make a judgement.
Council voted to âseek urgent interim reliefâ so that it can delay its preparations for full fluoridation of the public water system by the 28 March 2025 deadline.
Chief Executive Simon Weston said council also resolved to apply for a judicial review of the Director General of Healthâs directive to fluoridate the council water supply.
