Does anyone remember Ron Deal?

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

Hu Neighbourly folk, is there anyone who remembers Ron Deal.
The city council recently opened Ron Deal Way in Epuni – where the Central Park on Copeland development is.
Mrs Gloria Deal (Ron’s wife) was invited to unveil the new street sign.
Ron Deal began his career collecting rates on a bicycle before rising through the Hutt City Council ranks and being appointed Deputy Town Clerk, Town Clerk and Chief Executive.
He was always passionate about Lower Hutt and was especially proud of the work he did on Riddiford Garden and the roads around it.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
