Poll: Should Hollywood stars get special treatment?

Reporter Community News

Hollywood heavyweights Kirsten Dunst​ and Jesse Plemons​ applied for an exemption to avoid having to quarantine in an Auckland hotel

Their application came at a time when virtually all foreigners were banned due to Covid-19 border restrictions. The pair applied to spend their time in a secluded Waikato property.

Although the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) refused to confirm whether an exemption was granted, the pair have told Vanity Fair they are staying in a hotel.

Their application for an exemption cited concerns over privacy and a concern they would be followed by photographers.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
