Meetings were called by the Thames Hospital Board and took place in Thames Hospital Board Institutions. 2.. Attendance was all health professionals of the area - viz. Hospital Board staff, general practitioners, district nurses, practice nurses, public health nurses etc. 3. The attached papers were distributed. 4. Meetings were generally informative and educational where various aspects of the Area Health Board Act and its implications were described. 5. Informal discussions followed the informative sections and various salient points are listed below. COROMANDEL HOSPITAL, 8th October 1986 Attendance Dr. McPherson, Thames Hospital Board;Dr. Fox GP; Dr. McAllum GP; and GP Registrar; Public Health Nurse; Principal Nurse Coromandel Hospital; 4 other hospital nurses; 1 Practice Nurse The general principles of the Area Health Board were accepted, discussion centred around the politics of size and amalgamation. Prospects & Consequences A matter rising and to be addressed - How do Service Development Groups and Community Committees communicate with the Board? WAIHI HOSPITAL 9th October 1986 Attendance Dr. McPherson, Thames Hospital Board; Mr. Silvester, Surgeon Thames; Dr. McInnes, GP; Dr. Hardy GP; Dr. Wijetunga GP; Public Health Nurse; District Nurse; 3 Practice Nurses; 3 Hospital Board Nurses. The Area Health Board concept was accepted in principle. Discussion centred around politics and especially re boundaries of Waihi Beach and Tauranga County. The community of interest of Waihi was discussed and it was duly felt that Waihi was not orientated in any particular direction, either towards Thames, Hamilton or Tauranga. For health services, Waihi still feel an orientation to Thames and feels that the service there is more efficient. A point for further Board consideration is that of meeting times for the Area Health Board, perhaps night time meetings could be considered to attract a different membership to the Board. C3-1 WH1TIANGA HOSPITAL, 10 October 1986 Attendance Dr. McPherson, Thames Hospital Board; Mr. Silvester, Surgeon, Thames Hospital; Dr. Anderson GP; Dr. Bruce Mackereth GP; Principal Nurse, Mercury Bay Hospital; Public Health Nurse; District Nurse; 5 Hospital Board Nurses. The Area Health Board concept accepted in principle. Special interest shown in community representation on the Area Health Board. There was concern that in local body elections possible areas, for example, Whitianga, may have no representation on the hospital board appointed members were therefore considered an advantage. Community of interest of the population is still clearly orientated towards Thames. Special point for further discussion - How would area health boards ensure that appropriate people are appointed to Community Committees? PAEROA HOSPITAL, 13 October 1986 1300hours Attendance Dr. McPherson, Thames Hospital Board; Mr. Silvester, Surgeon Thames Hospital; Dr. Budge GP; Dr. White GP; Principal Nurse, Paeroa Hospital; Public Health Nurse; District Nurse; Plunket Nurse; 4 Staff Nurses, Paeroa Hospital. Area Health Board concept accepted in principle. The community of interest of Paeroa especially in health matters is very definitely towards Thames. NGATEA HEALTH CENTRE, 13 October 1986 1400 hours Attendance Dr. McPherson, Thames Hospital Board; Mr. Silvester, Surgeon Thames Hospital; Dr. R. Tennent GP; Dr. M. Tennent GP; Dr. Phillips GP; Dr. Courtenay locum GP; Public Health Nurse; District Nurse; 4 Practice Nurses The Area Health Board concept accepted in principle. The community of interest of Ngatea looks towards Thames for health matters. Amalgamation would be resisted. There is concern regarding the present

    STATEMENT by Graeme Lawrence TO THAMES COROMANDEL DISTRICT COUNCIL HEARINGS PANEL FOR THE HEARING of SUBMISSIONS ON PROPOSED DISTRICT PLAN Variation 1 - Natural Character Overlay 25 February 2016 REFERENCE - Submitter 133 Coromandel Watchdog of Hauraki Inc Section 42A Hearing Report and Section 32AA Further Evaluations Proposed Thames – Coromandel District Plan Variation 1 – Natural character 5 February 2016 (REPORT) 1. This is a summary of Evidence to be presented for Coromandel Watchdog of Hauraki Inc at the Hearing of Submissions on Variation #1 Natural Character. 2. The Thames Coromandel District has a distinctly unique character in the context of New Zealand Hauraki Gulf Marine Park and Waikato Region. The District can be considered as if it were the largest of the Hauraki Gulf islands. The Coromandel Peninsula which comprises the large part of the District can be entered by road at only two points in the south – Thames and Whangamata. The natural, cultural and historic heritage of the district is largely but not entirely coastal. 3. The Watchdog submission addresses natural character of the District not just coastal environment. The natural character overlay policies maps and rules require amendment to give effect to the preservation of natural character throughout the district to give effect to that submission and to the higher order planning instruments. 4. For the recent planning period of 45 years under Town & Country Planning Act (TCPA) and RMA the emphasis has been on maintaining and enhancing its high natural character and consolidating settlement patterns including industry and commerce on or within existing settlements. 5. The natural character overlay has been introduced with an unduly narrow focus.

Bassett, Minister of Health, Parliament Buildings, WELLINGTON. Dear Dr. Bassett, Herewith the Thames Hospital Boards proposal that requests your approval for the formation of the Thames Area Health District and Board. My Board has chosen to proceed differently to Northland, Nelson and Wanganui. Rather than form a Steering Committee we chose to use Thames Hospital Board staff to plan the proposed Area Health Board, and to then issue a "Public Discussion Document". The contents of this document were then widely circulated amongst health professionals, the private and voluntary sectors and amongst community groups likely to be interested. Advertisements in newspapers, articles in local newspapers and on the several radio stations serving the district were used to further increase coverage. Meetings were held throughout the district with health professionals and a series of public meetings were scheduled in all major communities of the district. Public meetings were chaired by Mr. N. Clarke a prominent resident and his report to you is attached. Submissions were called from the public to the "Discussion Document" and these are included in Appendix C. The Thames Hospital Board received 25 in total. The major modifications to the circulated discussion document are - 1.

    Introduction to the District

    Hauraki District Plan September 2014 6.2 INDIGENOUS BIODIVERSITY AND SIGNIFICANT NATURAL AREAS 6.2.1 BACKGROUND (1) PART 2 RESOURCE MANAGEMENT ACT 1991 (RMA) (a) The RMA has a key role in managing our indigenous biological diversity. Almost all forms of resource use affect indigenous biodiversity, and biodiversity is recognised in the Act in many ways. Part 2 of the Act places a responsibility on the Council to recognise and provide for the general protection of indigenous vegetation and habitats of indigenous fauna. (b) Section 5(2)(b) of the Act refers to safeguarding the life-supporting capacity of ecosystems. Section 6(c) places a responsibility on Council to protect areas of significant indigenous vegetation and significant habitats of indigenous fauna as a matter of “national importance”. Section 7 also requires Council to have particular regard to the maintenance and enhancement of amenity values (Section 7(c)) and the intrinsic value of ecosystems (Section 7(d)). The definition of “Intrinsic Values” in the Act includes values derived from biological and genetic diversity and the essential characteristics that determine an ecosystem’s integrity, form, functioning and resilience. These characteristics are also integral to the life-supporting capacity of ecosystems identified in Section 5(2)(b). In addition, it is understood that some areas of indigenous biodiversity have cultural values of importance to tangata whenua, and through the protection of indigenous biodiversity for ecosystem reasons, such protection can also assist Council in carrying out its responsibilities under Section 8 of the Act. (c) Section 31 of the Act provides that it is the function of territorial authorities to control the effects of the use of land for the maintenance of indigenous biological diversity.

The writing of history consists in t he complementary activities of analysis and reflection. A study of the school cadets in New Zealand from their evolution in the old established colleges till 1914, provides an opportunity for both these activities to be attempted throug~ the medium of a relatively small but highly defined topic. As an institution, the cadets provide an interesting study in themselves, for by minutely observir.g the specialised activities of a l arge section of New Zealand society, namely its children together with those especially concerned with the cadets through education or defence, it is possible to gain a detailed under­ standing and insight into their beliefs and assumptions.
