"Kaka, were essentially extinct here in Wellington for over 100 years. Then in 2002 a small group was translocated to our fenced sanctuary Zealandia. Now Kaka fly freely around the CBD. There are approximately 1000 birds now, each with its own personality.
They now also breed outside of Zealandia, and are seen throughout the city. These clever parrots are such entertainers, and are a photographers dream.?

Now, almost six months into his job, he feels more confident and is grateful for the support he has received. Jack encourages other young people if given the opportunity to take the course and give things a go.

Water Services - all councils:-
We the community have paid in good faith, the value the officials have set for the cost to provide and maintain the services. There are specific lines in the rates invoices and information provided by said councils to state as such.
When a service provider is paid for a service are we not entitled to have that service provided? - if it was a cleaner for your home? a mechanic for your car? or the accountant for your business? if you have paid you have a right to that service being delivered as advertised - agreed??
If that service is not delivered - we also have rights to have the issues rectified or the full services delivered at no further cost - agreed? There are usually rules around this for all businesses and operations.
Why should our councils be exempt from any culpability in the failure to provide the services they have offered, charged for, and have been paid to provide?
Collectively we the public are the employer of the councils and pay for the services they advise they can provide.
If we the aggrieved in these transactions actually band together - would we not have more collective power to enforce such actions required to ensure the power to get these services actioned and done as per what we have all collectively paid for?
I suggest we all duly keep paying the rates invoices as set - MINUS anything to do with the water part - reset any auto payments and deduct anything stated as gwrc or water services - until such time as our collective councils have enacted the services they have been already paid for to provide.
And yes there is a "fix" to some of the issues all will say is that WW cant get around the leaks fast enough - so the suggestion is to subcontract to the local plumbing firms who have the capability to do the work - remove a huge bunch of red tape around that process and get people out fixing pipes - if WW obviously does not have the capacity - the councils need to get other contractors in.
WW is only another arm of our collective councils - whole sale owned by our 6 council orgs in the Wgtn region and paid profits to exist. Let some local businesses get some work and get the job done!
Collectively we have the power to ensure our councils behave in the manner in which they were voted to be there.

So we’ve just announced our 5th fee cut in 5 years. From 1 April, we’re lowering our total fund charge to 0.30% across our Conservative, Balanced and Growth KiwiSaver Funds and our diversified investment funds. Says Sam Stubbs, Simplicity MD: “Being a KiwiSaver manager involves huge economies of scale. Fee cuts in our industry should be frequent, but they aren’t.”
Simplicity believes in passing on the benefits of scale to our members – and we’re on track for further fee cuts in the future. Check out more details on our blog now!
