Cannabis referendum: Draft bill released

Oliver Neighbourly Lead from One Tree Point

RNZ published an article today that contains a link to the draft of the Cannabis Legalisation and Control Bill which we get to vote for or against in one of next year's referenda.
There will be a lot of misinformation, fake news and confusion about this bill in the media over the next nine to ten months, so for those of us (like me) who rather get it directly from the source, we can now have a first read of the proposed legislation and follow the government's process as the bill is debated and refined.
Since we have unfortunately seen an increase in trolling and inappropriate comments in our area lately, I decided to disable replies for this post, apologies for that. It is merely meant as an announcement, and to provide access to the aforementioned resources.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In October, the fine for parking in a designated mobility car park without a permit has jumped from $150 to $750—a 400% increase!

The goal is to keep these spaces open for those who truly need them. Do you think this big increase in the fine is fair? Share your thoughts below.
