The charges came after a 2014 complaint by a member of the public about people smoking inside. Ministry of Health enforcement officers then spotted patrons smoking in the areas on four separate occasions. But in the High Court decision by Justice Rebecca Edwards, released on Tuesday, Shear- water Hotels successfully argued the District Court judge was wrong in assuming the plastic blinds were closed when determining whether the areas were internal or open. Justice Edwards said for the areas to be considered internal, they would have to be completely or substantially enclosed, with the blinds down, at the time of each infringement. ‘‘Deeming entire walls or roof-like surfaces to be in place when they are not is inconsistent with both the scheme and purpose of the act,’’ she said. Shearwater Hotels conceded that one of the areas, on Anzac Rd, was completely or substantially enclosed at the date of one charge, as all its blinds were pulled down at the time. However, with the remaining charges, it said that there was insufficient evidence to show the areas were completely or substantially enclosed. Justice Edwards referred the charges back to the District Court, to determine whether the areas were ‘‘internal’’ at the time of each charge. A

PETER MEECHAM/FAIRFAX NZ Wet wood Our residents are flourishing AND SO COULD YOU banned from fires

STAFF REPORTER

New indoor fire laws will ban Aucklanders from burning wet wood and certain types of coal this winter. Auckland Council has approved a new bylaw that sets out rules for how residents can use their indoor domestic fires. From June 1, the Air Quality Bylaw for Indoor Domestic Fires will take effect. It allows Auck- landers to still use their open indoor fires and their current wood burners but restricts what they can burn. To minimise air pollution the burning of wet wood, painted wood, treated wood, fuel with a high sulphur content, such as certain coals, household rubbish or green waste will be banned. Auckland has about 58,000 pre-2005 wood burners in homes and 17,000 open fireplaces. In 2012, a report was presented to Auckland Council that said air pollution was responsible for 200 premature deaths a year. Motor vehicles and domestic fires were considered to be the two largest sources of air pollution in Auckland. Under the new bylaw, indoor fireplaces must not discharge containments that had negative impacts on human health or on neighbouring properties. New wood burners installed in a home must meet new regional standards and central government standards set through the National Environ- mental Standards for Air Quality, designed to protect the health of New Zealanders.

Officiating your peers is a tough job for a teenager, but it is a requirement under a new Basket- ball New Zealand ruling. This year, every team entering national secondary school premiership tournaments must provide a student referee, from their school, for the duration of the tournament. After struggling to get referees for premiership tournaments, Basketball New Zealand and New Zealand Secondary Schools Sports Council saw this initiative, first mooted in 2014, as a way to foster more referees. A student referee has been recommended, but not mandatory, for previous tournaments.

By turning up the tunes and dial- ling down the competitiveness of school sport, increasing numbers of teenagers were enticed to get active on the North Shore last year. Small-sided games and a focus on the social aspects of sport were among the solutions students implemented in an award- winning project to get more of their peers playing sport. A Kiwisport project involving students designing and delivering modified sporting opportunities, won a New Zealand Secondary School Sports Council innovation in school sport award. The project was a collaboration between Harbour Sport and local high schools. Harbour Sport’s regional sport director, Kylie McGrigor, helped facilitate the Harbour Sport’s project.
