#22015-08-06 03:41I know first hand how critical the availability of after hours doctors in Cromwell is after being struck down with a serious case of Pancreatitis on Christmas Eve. They are already severely stretched, so to further reduce services would put the community & its medical staff in an unfair and untenable position. This is a growing community, with young families moving here as well as older members needing and deserving after hours help. This will have an adverse affect not only for current residents but also for people who had been planning to move here. Please don't take this drastic step!! Thank you |

#62015-08-06 21:39Because I believe that this is the most stupid idea the sdhb has ever had! I am an emergency doctor, and I honestly cannot believe it! |

#102015-08-06 23:42I have two children with life-threatening allergies and this means that we need an afterhours medical service close by. Scary to think we would need to travel with our children to Alexandra in an emergency. |

#112015-08-07 00:17Living in a rural community so far from a hospital surely an after hours doctors service is a neccesity. We are not a third world country yet we may as well be if this occurs as our medical services will be very poor! |

#202015-08-07 09:06I am a mother of three young children. With the nearest hospital so far from Cromwell, the after hours Doctor service is of great value to me and all local parents i expect. Cromwell is growing - we need more services in the area, not less. |

#212015-08-07 09:07The medical center has voted not to accept this proposal but funding will be cut on 1 October |

#222015-08-07 09:40This service is a necessity!! Crazy to try and cut it with such high numbers of families with young children, elderly citizens and a generally isolated population!! |
Guest |
#232015-08-07 09:45Small rural communities lose too many services and we are growing so the need to provide after hours care is greater not less! Also why has there been no public consultation over this important matter? |

#242015-08-07 10:45I have had my wee boy in here and it's an amazing facility. Would hate too lose the "comfort" of knowing it's available for my under 5s. |

Allow Essential Maintenance of Golf Courses During Lockdown Period
MBIE have determined that golf course turf maintenance is not an essential service during the Covid-19 lockdown period. If critical parts of any golf course (namely putting greens) do not receive basic maintenance over the shutdown period, the task of restoring the greens to required standards/conditions may not be achievable or affordable for many golf clubs. The long term financial impacts for these clubs, and consequently for the many NZ’ers who enjoy the game, will be far reaching. Please

A vote of no confidence in the Mayor and Several councillors of the DCC
I have started this petition which will be presented to the Minister for Local Government. The Mayor and several councillors have pushed through policies with little or no public consultation,the latest being the change of speed to 10kmh in the CBD .This was done by the Mayor using the Covid 19 argument it will be better for the public and reduce the risk of infection . This happened within a matter of days and the signs were already printed before the vote at council was done. This was also do

Re-open the sale yards
COVID-19 shut down our sale yards but now we desperately need to have these re-opened, particularly in areas like Hawke's Bay where severe drought is having a major impact. Hawke's Bay farmers are currently facing what may be the worst drought in history, and the situation is compounded by the loss of the sale yards - an avenue of selling that the majority of farmers know well and have ultilised in the past. Other regions are also under significant feed pressure and would benefit from sale yards

Name the NorthConnex Tunnel after Jim Adams.
This petition is to show support for the naming of the NorthConnex Tunnel after Jim Adams who lost his life during the construction of the tunnel on May 23rd 2017. To name this tunnel after a well respected man is a small token of appreciation for both the memory of Jim and his family.

TE WIWI NĀTI HAPŪ CLUSTER PETITION: THE ROAD
Our road from and between the Kaiinanga Hill to the end of the Tikapa and Awanui Roads is often unsafe and inaccessible, especially in the wet months. Whānau still live in that valley, and people travel in and out daily for work, for school, or to visit other whānau. We are often not able to attend our marae hui. The Ambulance and Fire Services often can't attend emergencies there. We are asking that the Gisborne District Council repair the road. No more short-term patch-ups. We need our

Let butchers open during the lockdown
Many people including myself buy their meat at independent butchers rather than the supermarket. Now the butchers have been told they have to close as they are 'non-essential'. We, the signers of this petition, disagree. It is unfair and makes no sense. A dairy and a greengrocer can open but a butcher next door cannot. Supermarkets shouldn't be given a monopoly on the sale of meat. See also: Coronavirus: Piles of meat to be given away, thrown out after butchers told they're not an 'essential bu
