Census
Did you know that a significant amount of Government funding is based on Census data?
Northland District Health Board is paid per unit of population.
Funds for water and sewerage subsidies and critically roading subsidies are paid on a deprivation index and population data.
For any number of reason thousands of people choose not to participate in census but this means we are missing out!
Missing out on critical funding we need to ensure that we can meet the basic needs of our community.
This is my person post to ask that we all compete the census and spread this important message so that everyone understand how critically important this is to everyone in our community.
Census date is 6 March. Thank you for reading and sharing on your networks. ☺

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?
-
60.4% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
24.4% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.2% ... It is complicated
