JUSTICES OF THE PEACE ON THE MOVE

Frank from Orewa

As some of your readers may be aware, the Justices of the Peace have been holding clinics at the Orewa Barber Shop, Hillary Square, Orewa since 1 April 2019 while the Citizens Advice Bureau was being refurbished.

We are pleased to advise that the CAB has now moved back into their newly refurbished accommodation and is now operating as normal from 11 June 2019. The Justices of the Peace will remain at the Orewa Barber Shop until 29 June 2019 at which time they too will relocate back to the CAB. The first clinic at the CAB will be 1 July 2019.

The Auckland Justices of the Peace Association would like to acknowledge Lorraine of the Orewa Barber Shop for allowing the JP's to operate out of her premises as a temporary measure. The access, additional work and support provided by Lorraine and her staff in support of the JP's has been first class. Thank you, Lorraine

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?
