We want your questions!
Western Bay, what's something you'd like to ask the candidates standing in the elections this year? ?
Whatever your question is, submit them to us and those standing in the election could be answering your question on the night of your local debate! Here's how it works:
1. Submit your question to us via our website or fill out a printed form at one of our centres before Friday 19 August 2022.
2. We'll group the questions into themes and select a handful to be asked*. If you're stuck on what to ask, have a look at our pre-election report. It has info on the current local government landscape and an overview of our key projects: www.westernbay.govt.nz...
3. Watch the debates! Who doesn't love a debate? You can watch them from the comfort of your own home via our livestream or you can attend them live:
*Please note: although it would be great to ask the candidates every single question submitted, it would be a very, very long night. We'll make sure there's a good spread of questions however we won't be shying away from hot topics.
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.
