Changes to JP Service Desks in Whangarei

Valerie Wong from Northland Justices of the Peace Association

The Northland JP Association wishes to advise that the Service Desk at the District Courthouse on Bank St will cease operation on Friday 16 August. The Saturday morning Service Desk at the Central Library will continue as per usual.
As from Wednesday 4 September, a JP Service Desk will operate at the Central Library on both Wednesday and Thursday mornings, 9.30 am until 12.00 noon in addition to the Saturday morning session.
As previously posted, there are also JP Service Desks at Tikipunga Library on Monday and Wednesday mornings 9.30 am - 12 noon, Onerahi Library on Thursdays 2.00 - 4.00 pm and Ruakaka Library on Saturdays 10.00 - 11.00 am.
A summary document listing the locations and times is attached
No appointment is necessary when coming to a Service Desk. However, if you need a JP outside of these Service Desk hours, you will need to find one by going to justiceofthepeace.org.nz. Use the Quick Find function by typing in a/your suburb and clicking "Search". This will bring up a list of Justices of the Peace in that location with their contact details and availability. You will then need to contact the JP and arrange an appointment.

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
