And it just got worse.......

Justine from The Brook

.......Apparently the Sanctuary are no longer bound by the consent conditions to aerially drop poison:

Hello Richard

With the national regulations coming into force the Trust have applied for a partial surrender of their consent essentially removing all the conditions relating to the discharge of brodifacoum. This has been accepted by the Council.

A copy of the acceptance is attached for your information. You will note in appendix B the Trust have some requirements to meet to be permitted under this regulation and we will be monitoring for compliance with these standards.

Cheers
Mandy.

What this means is:

- No need to notify public or neighbours.

- Don't need fence wof.

- No bigger zones or people to pick up poison dropped outside.

- No requirement to minimise bykill.

However, the fence does need to be approved by council. This is where council can actually now stop the drop. By confirming the fence is insecure it can refuse permission.
We need to impress on council that they now have the ability to say yay or nay. They must stay nay.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.

🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.

Remember, banks will:​​
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes​​
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device​​
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.

If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
