Ban public sales of Fireworks.
Unfortunately there is too much misuse of fireworks by people that buy them.
The main problem is people stock up , then let them off at inappropriate times during the year.
As well as the amount of fire damage and extra pressure on medical services.
Also there is often a litter problem in public places.
What is the environmental impact from the gases from the burning of the fireworks?
Maybe the Government doesn't want want to ban public sales of fireworks because it gets revenue from the sales in taxes!
Public displays are far better quality and are at a set time.
Why is this important?
It protects our environment!
It stops noise pollution at inappropriate times!
saves extra pressure on fire service and Medical services

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.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
