The minefield of tenants' rights
Please do come to Citizens Advice Bureau's free talk on Friday 27th May at 11am upstairs in the Rimu Rooms in Coastlands if you want to know more, or have friends or relatives who are struggling
New Zealand tenancy laws have been steadily been updated over the last couple of years to provide greater fairness, and new Healthy Homes Standards mean that your homes must be warm and dry, but there are still areas of Tenancy legislation that don't necessarily protect tenants, especially people new to renting who are flatting
Come along to our free information session, and learn about Landlord and Tenant responsibilities in New Zealand and the new Healthy Homes Standards Landlords have to comply with
We will have a Q&A session afterwards and our speaker from Porirua Kapiti Community Law Centre, Mike Sceats, can also answer questions on other topics you might be struggling with, such as citizenship applications, employment contracts etc
Nibbles, tea and coffee will be available afterwards 😊😊😊
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
