Arms Act Rewrite Public Consultation Closes in 10 Days
You have until midnight of Friday 28 March to make your submission. Here is the link:
consultations.justice.govt.nz...

It is important that the public make their submission because if you don’t the pro-gun lobby group COLFO (Council of Licenced Firearms Owners) will steam-roll the submissions process.
COLFO has three or four key objectives: Abolish the Firearms Registry, remove authority for the management of the Firearms Safety Authority from the Police, to the Ministry of Justice, make it easier for applicants to get a firearms licence by relaxing the vetting process, re-introduce semi-automatic centre-fire rifles.
If you are OK with semi-automatic centre-fire rifles being re-introduced, then there is nothing for you to do.
If the thought of semi-automatic centre-fire rifles being once more available to the general public, the A Category licence holders, concerns you, then you need to make a submission. Also contact your MP to voice your concerns and write to the Ombudsmen.
If you are one of the 65,000 people who, in March 2019, signed the petition banning semi-automatic weapons, you need to visit the Ministry of Justice website and re-affirm your commitment.

It was a very hard decision but we've chosen our winner of the Best Backyard Build as Todd Haswell of Raureka. Congratulations, Todd!

His entry reads:
A couple of years ago my wife said "Can you make me a cuppa tea area down the back? Something with a cover over it."
Me being a graphic artist by trade, I went overboard and made this. Most of the timber is offcuts or leftover from years of not throwing anything out. The doors are from the old Napier Hospital. The two side ones open up on top like stable doors. At night lights come on in the windows (solar), which makes it look like a little house. However the back wall is the centre door.

We think his entry is very creative and impressive. Give this post a Like if you agree!

This wraps up our Backyard Awards - we hope you enjoyed taking part and seeing your neighbour's creations.

It’s like baking bread or making your favourite dish from scratch, but making pasta for the first time can be tricky so I am inviting you to come to my home in Wellington, New Zealand, with up to 3 others to learn my way of making pasta.

We will make Spaghetti Bolognese and Spinach and Ricotta Ravioli and as an option we can also make that irresistible Italian dessert Tiramisu.

Lessons are great for Mother/Daughters/Sons, birthday events or just doing something a bit different with your good friends.

The cost is $40 per person and an extra $5 per person if you would like to make Tiramisu.

All ingredients are provided, you will eat what you make, and you can take home any left overs.

Classes can be held in the evenings or on the weekends. Classes can take around 3-4hrs.
For larger groups I am happy to come to your kitchen for an extra fee.
