Small businesses are vital to the recovery of our economy.

During the Covid-19 restrictions, business owners have shown initiative, hard work and resilience to keep afloat.

But many have been hit hard.

Lack of clarity about just how heavy the toll of the restrictions have been on individual businesses and their ability to quickly rebound adds to the uncertainty of the national economic recovery.

Therefore, Prosper is launching a survey targeted at finding out the scale of Covid-19's impact.

You can take that survey right now – it will only take a few minutes.

Here we have Water Serviceperson Rapata replacing a broken toby. Rather than turning off the water, he diverted the flow away from the affected house for a … View more

WHAT TO DO YOU THINK OF THIS?

Raymond from Tawa

The landlord had given due notice to the tenants, before the new laws came into effect.

Isn't this a case of applying a new law retrospectively?
