THE bronze statues of Footrot Flats’ Wal and his dog and the surfboard- based sculpture at Roberts Road are among many projects Art in Public Places members Kay Crosby, Margot Searle and Karen Richardson were celebrated for at the trust’s last meeting. While the three women’s work was acknowledged at the meeting, their retirement left the trust at a crossroads, said trust chairwoman, Gisborne Mayor Rehette Stoltz. “Over the years these women have been integral in a number of different public art pieces around the district.” Mrs Stoltz thanked them for their many hours of work — mostly fundraising to achieve goals requested by the community. Among other public artworks around the district the three women were involved with were the red Voyager boat by Waikanae Stream, and in Gladstone Road, the ceramic whale tooth, and The Guardian - Te Tairawhiti, a four-metre WAL AND DOG IN BRONZE, OUTSIDE THE HB WILLIAMS MEMORIAL high plexiglass cylindrical sculpture LIBRARY designed to symbolise the meeting of two cultures.

by Charlotte Jones, Local Democracy Reporter, Whakatane Beacon THE Labour Party has hit back at claims by National that a recent poll showing favourable results for Labour in the East Coast is “push polling”. National Party campaign chair Gerry Brownlee came out swinging against Labour’s poll, which shows its East Coast candidate Kiri Allan polling ahead of National candidate Tania Tapsell by 5.5 percentage points. Mr Brownlee said the company used by Labour to conduct the poll, Community Engagement Limited, had previously been accused of push polling in Australia and was FIRST ARRIVAL: An Air NZ aircraft waits for passengers to board yesterday morning after the official blessing of the new now attempting to do the same here. terminal at Gisborne Airport.

BAN ON WILD ANIMALS IN CIRCUSES: France’s environment minister has announced a gradual ban on using wild animals in travelling circuses, on keeping dolphins and killer whales in captivity in marine parks and on raising mink on fur farms. Barbara Pompili, France’s minister of ecological transition, said in a news conference that bears, tigers, lions, elephants and other wild animals won’t be allowed any more in travelling circuses “in the coming years.” In addition, starting immediately, France’s three marine parks won’t be able to bring in nor breed dolphins and killer whales any more, she said. “It is time to open a new era in our relationship with these (wild) animals,” she said, arguing that animal welfare is a priority. Pompili said the measures will also bring an end to mink farming, where animals are raised for their fur, within the next five years. The ban does not apply to wild animals in other permanent shows and in zoos. Pompili did not set any precise date for the ban in travelling circuses, saying the process should start “as soon as possible.” She promised solutions will be found for each animal “on a case-by-case basis.” The French government will implement an 8 million- euro (NZ$14.24 million) package to help people working in circuses and marine parks find other jobs. “That transition will be spread over several years, because it will change the lives of many people,” she said.
