Thames-Coromandel council pushes pause on library book spend to reduce 10 per cent rates rise.

The remaining 10 per cent will be used to replace key books that may not be able to be repaired during the year.

Reconsider the proposed changes to the Lower Hutt Rubbish and Recycling
This petition is to show public support for a reassesment of the proposed rubbish and recycling scheme. The newly proposed scheme penalises concious consumers who make efforts to create less wastte, is unsuitable for pensioners and properties with low numbers. There are too few options with a 'pay as you throw' option sorely lacking. The council also have no good options for assisting the elderly or those with long driveways. We as the ratepayers are not happy and would like the council to readd

Put a hold on the roll out 5G
I am expressing my concerns about the detrimental affect non ionizing radiation could have on our children who are our potential future leader of our country New Zealand. There has been no sufficient scientific study on the 5G platform to indicate that 5G is safe for our children. I believe parliament has not taken the appropriate measures to ensure the health and safety of our children and the NZ public. I simply ask that parliament holds on the roll out of 5G until sufficient scientific eviden

PLEASE support HEALTH PROFESSIONALS to be allowed to wear INNOVATIVE PPE (Personal Protective Equipment)!
We as HEALTH PROFESSIONALS are currently risking our lives to serve the sick. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) funded by the New Zealand Ministry of Health (NZMoH) and supplied by District Health Boards (DHBs) is precious and exhaustive in quantity. As HEALTH PROFESSIONALS we would like the opportunity to protect ourselves by being permitted to wear INNOVATIVE PPE (e.g. homemade facemasks, etc.). Health Consumers may also benefit when being cared for by Health Professionals. The ULTIMATE GOA

Pay increase for Supermarket workers during pandemic
Supermarkets are making an enormous profit from the Covid-pandemic because of the surge of panic buyers this year. New Zealand has decided to declare a stage 4 lockdown; meaning all nonessential businesses will close for at least 4 weeks. Sadly, supermarket workers (some as young as 15) must continue to work day and night, while putting their own safety and health at risk during this lockdown period. It's only fair to encourage these high profitable supermarket's to pay the 'essential workers'

Make the rubbish bins bigger
This is mainly directed towards those who already dislike the new rubbish system in the Waikato. The council is refusing to listen to the peoples complaints, so action muct be taken. The new rubbish bin system in the Waikato is flawed and doesn't take into consideration that bigger families need more space. The recycling bin is bigger than the rubbish, which doesn't help bigger families or families that use disposable nappies. The scrap bin smells terrible and will require constant and continu
