Ha just watching news on people and visitors leaving behind some human waste and ask people to use the toilets..well they should make more toilets along the way,1 or 2 is no where enough,its simple !
Most walking tracks even here in waikane have nothing so what they expect let alone up and down the country,as for some toilets that are in use like otaki beach for example should be bulldozed and clean and fresh ones built,I did need to visit here one day and smelt like gaint urine pit and I went elsewhere,,,build more Toilets and cut the crap,your the ones in charge so build more,,sure its bit hard to get in some locations but what you paided for,use a helicopter like you do for other things ,you want nice clean tracks put a toilet there,no brainer idea,,my 1 cent on that and sure most will agree,most coastal areas dont have any toilets but you expect everyone to wee or poo in a bag or something,,we all human and have to go sometimes

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
