Poll: Has the rental you live in been insulated yet?

Reporter Marlborough Express

Three years ago the National Government passed a law change mandating that all rental properties must have underfloor and overhead insulation, unless installing it was not practical. This came into effect on July 1.

Has your rental been insulated yet?

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
