Tsunami siren test on Sunday 4 April
A friendly reminder, at noon this Sunday 4 April Auckland Emergency Management will be testing the tsunami siren network across the Auckland region. This is a test we do twice a year with the change of day light saving. When the sirens sound, you are not required to do anything. During the test, the sirens may sound a number of times for a maximum of 10 minutes. On Sunday, we will only be testing the siren network, not all forms of alerts.
You can find out more info about our siren testing and the locations of the tsunami sirens here: ourauckland.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz...
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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?
-
58.4% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.8% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.8% ... It is complicated
