  • Pre-Fabricated Homes Investment Prospectus
    Pre-fabricated Homes South Waikato District Investment Prospectus Council Nau mai, haere mai WEL COME From the Mayor Dear Investor, we are proud to present our District to you as you consider where in New Zealand to establish an offsite pre-fabricated home manufacturing facility. Since the early 1890s with native timber processing in Putāruru, through to the establishment of commercial forests of Pinus radiata in the 1920s and the building of the Kinleith Timber, Paper and Pulp Mill in 1954, the South Waikato has been at the forefront of technological innovations in timber processing. Timber is in the DNA of our people and communities, who are both ready and able to support your development. South Waikato District Mayor Jenny Shattock From the Chair (SWIFT) The South Waikato Investment Fund Trust (SWIFT) believes that Putāruru is an outstanding location to establish a large scale manufacturing facility. Financially the low cost of land, proximity to raw materials and labour, coupled with direct road and rail links makes for a compelling business case. The social impact of this kind of investment would be transformational, both directly and indirectly, accelerating the delivery of inclusive growth for one of New Zealand’s most progressive Districts. Ian Elliott, SWIFT Chairperson From the SWDC Chief Executive The South Waikato has a plentiful supply of low cost land, located on State Highway one, within two and a half hours’* drive time of over half of New Zealand’s population. With direct rail links to the Port of Tauranga and beyond, importing and exporting is simple and cost effective.

  • Making a Community: Filipinos in Wellington
    Making a Community: Filipinos in Wellington September 2017 ISBN 978-0-9941409-4-4 (PDF) Making a Community: Filipinos in Wellington About the Author As an American living in New Zealand, I’ve been observing the debate here on immigration and multiculturalism. I arrived in Wellington last year with my Kiwi husband and three-year old son – and while settling in we’ve spent a lot of time discovering the delights of the city and its people. The experience also gave me some perspective on being a migrant far from home. I have a professional interest in South East Asian history, languages and culture - I just completed a PhD on the subject. I speak some Filipino, and am fascinated by the Philippines’ complex history. One of the major phenomena in the Philippines since the 1970s has been the growth of the global Filipino diaspora. That story has often been full of sadness. So I was intrigued by anecdotes of positivity and success from Wellington. Writing about how the migrant Filipino community has settled in New Zealand has been more than just a research project. It has highlighted how migration plays a role in community building. It also has meaning for me and my family’s future here. I really wanted to share some of the stories that I think reflect successful outcomes from immigration over the past thirty years. By Dr Rebecca Townsend 1 Key Points 1. 2. 3. Filipinos comprise 1 percent of Filipinos are a vital part of Most Filipinos in New Zealand are New Zealand’s population – the New Zealand’s dairy, healthcare, not Overseas Filipino Workers third largest Asian ethnic group construction, nursing, aged care, (OFW).

The CDHB as a whole represents over 8300 employees across a diverse range of services. Every division of the CDHB is affected by alcohol misuse and alcohol-related harm. The CDHB response is based on extensive evidence for alcohol-related harm. It is important that evidence-based submissions are given a higher weighting than those based on opinion or hearsay in the final formulation of the Local Alcohol Policy. There are important evidence based issues, clinical issues and public health issues which need to be articulated by the CDHB and therefore requests two slots at the hearings .

Ko te kotahitanga te waka e kawe nei te oranga mō ngā whānau, mō ngā hapū, mō ngā iwi. Poipoia te rangatahi, ka puta, ka ora. The name ‘Tuia’ is derived from a tauparapara (Māori proverbial saying) that is hundreds of years old. This saying recognises and explains the potential that lies within meaningful connections to: the past, present and future; to self; and to people, place and environment. The word ‘Tuia’ means to weave and when people are woven together well, their collective contribution has a greater positive impact on community. We as a rangatahi (youth) leadership programme look to embody this by connecting young Māori from across Aotearoa/New Zealand - connecting passions, aspirations and dreams of rangatahi to serve our communities well. 1 Tuia Overview Tuia is an intentional, long-term, intergenerational approach to develop and enhance the way in which rangatahi Māori contribute to communities throughout New Zealand. We look to build a network for rangatahi to help support them in their contribution to their communities.

  • Hanmer Springs
    Survey of business owner/managers’ perceptions of outdoor smokefree areas: Hanmer Springs July 2017 Survey and report prepared by: Cancer Society, Canterbury-West Coast division Information Team, Community & Public Health, Canterbury District Health Board Executive summary Introduction Community support for smokefree outdoor areas is well documented, however, there is little local data on tourism-related business owner/manager’s perceptions of smoking, smokefree policy and smokefree outdoor areas. The aim of this survey was to gauge tourism industry views on these issues to guide the Cancer Society’s advocacy work with the Hurunui District Council (HDC). Methods A survey of owner/managers of tourism-related businesses in Hanmer Springs was conducted in February and March 2017. Forty-two owner/managers representing 44 businesses completed a face- to-face or telephone interviewer-administered questionnaire. Main findings More than three-quarters of respondents thought that outdoor dining/seating areas should be smokefree. Forty-six percent of respondents thought that smokefree outdoor dining should be introduced using a voluntary policy, while the remaining 54 percent thought that it should be introduced using a regulated local policy. Most respondents stated that they would be more likely to support smokefree outdoor areas if there was evidence of success where smokefree outdoor areas were in place, and customer, community and council support for smokefree outdoor areas. Forty-one percent of respondents thought that introducing more smokefree outdoor areas in Hanmer Springs would have a positive impact on tourism, and 43% thought that it would make no difference. Most respondents (88.1%) stated that they would support a smokefree main street in Hanmer Springs.
