Wellbeing support is available for cyclone-stricken Napier residents. Mental health advocate Mike King and winery owner Greg Miller are opening the "I Am Hope Wellness Centre" there today. It's situated on the flood-ravaged Valley d'Vine restaurant premises on Linden Estate. A team of four counsellors and one doctor are taking annual leave for a fortnight to offer health services at no cost. King told Kerre Woodham they want to be operating for a minimum of three months. He says he's contracting as

Rob Campbell is a very big cheese. He was named Deloitte chairman of the Year in 2017 and awarded a Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit for services to business in 2019. Not bad for a poacher turned gamekeeper, a former Unionist turned businessman, appointed as Chancellor of Auckland, University of Technology, and more recently charged with the onerous burden of transforming New Zealand's health system – Te Whatu Ora. However, for a very busy man, he may have some much needed spare time

I was listening to Justine Wilson this morning, the woman Mike interviewed who runs the KiwiEsk Luxury Lodge in Esk Valley. Mike was asking for her reaction to the announcement yesterday that businesses hit by cyclone damage can get grants of up to $40,000 to help with the immediate costs of the damage. Cyclone Recovery Minister Grant Robertson said more announcements on funding support will be made in the coming days and weeks. All well and good. It will be seen as a boon for some people, but you

The clean-up post Cyclone Gabrielle is uncharted territory for many kiwis. If you have a house at the bottom of your driveway, as Justine Wilson does, a house that wasn't there yesterday, doesn't belong to you and doesn't belong there, how do you get rid of it? How do you prioritise earthmoving equipment, house moving trucks, tow trucks, volunteers with shovels when there are limited resources and so much need?

2023/02/23

I thought I'd start with the fact that Consumer NZ has come out and said that stranded Cook Strait ferry passengers have a strong case for payout. And the thing that astonished me when I heard that story, that passengers may have a case for claiming reimbursement after having their ferry trips cancelled, is that there's any question at all of there being compensation. Interislander and Blubridge both operate ferries between the North and South Islands, but they have been beset with breakdowns and

Listening to Adrian Orr, the Reserve Bank Governor this morning, you realise New Zealand is between a rock and a hard place. As a country, we need to rebuild and rebuild a more resistant, resilient infrastructure in the wake of Cyclone Gabriel, and indeed all the other cyclones that have hit this summer. And we're going to need to be looking at reinforcing existing infrastructure around the country. Gisborne, parts of Hawkes Bay, Coromandel, the far north and parts of Auckland have been devastated

2023/02/22

Over the past week, there has been much discussion around how the Government should fund our Cyclone Gabrielle recovery, and whether we should be shoring up existing infrastructure in anticipation of more weather events occurring. Do we borrow? Do we tax? Do we reprioritise spending? In light of the Cyclone disaster, Finance Minister Grant Robertson yesterday left the door open to a review of the Government's no new taxes policy. To discuss, Robert Macculloch, the Matthew S.

They're trying to get someone, obviously they're very, very busy, and at least emailed back to say they would do their best to get someone on this morning.

There are so many stories of courage and community spirit in the wake of crises here and around the world, unfortunately, chaos brings out the worst in people too. Various chapters of the Mongrel Mob have made much over recent years of the fact that they are community leaders. That they have formed brotherhoods because there is nothing for them in normal society. They say they aren't necessarily criminals, many of them have jobs and pay their taxes, they look after their families, they deserve a

Gisborne may soon get a lifeline, as it continues to navigate patchy internet and phone connections and flooded out highways.

The Defence Force has come in to assist, and the Prime Minister will visit Tairawhiti today to assess the damage.

Parts of the Hawke’s Bay region remain cut off today without water, power, or cell coverage, with officials scrambling to find out more about the devastation in the cold light of day. Two people are confirmed dead, others are still trapped or awaiting supplies, and officials have “big gaps of knowledge” as to the state of isolated areas. One woman died after a landslip on her property in northern Hawke’s Bay and another person’s body has been found on a storm-ravaged beach. Central Hawke’s Bay

In many cases, police are proposing to raise fees from a few $100 to over $1000, and also apply fees to activities that have required no charges previously.

No wonder parents have trouble getting their kids to school. I've had parents who have phoned me, particularly in the last few months, saying they have real trouble getting their teenagers to school when the teenagers simply don't feel like going. And you can understand why. Schooling has been so disrupted over the years. The parents try to tell their kids that school's important, and the kids point to Covid being a time when they were told to stay at home and that they could learn just as well at
