  • Whakamaua: Māori Health Action Plan 2020–2025
    Whakamaua Māori Health Action Plan 2020–2025 Whakamaua Whakamaua means ‘to secure, to grasp, to take hold of, to wear’. It also widely associated with the whakataukī ‘Ko te pae tawhiti, whāia kia tata. Ko te pae tata, whakamaua kia tīna.’ – ‘Seek out the distant horizons, while cherishing those achievements at hand.’ Its use conveys a sense of acting to take hold of the pae tata, those goals within our reach, as well as working to secure pae ora, healthy futures for Māori – that is the vision of He Korowai Oranga: Māori Health Strategy, which Whakamaua will help give effect to. Whakamaua also alludes to the idea that a korowai is intended to be worn. Whakamaua will bring completion and form to He Korowai Oranga so that all whānau, hapū, iwi and Māori communities can experience health and vitality under its covering.

  • Section 355 Review of Output: Juice FM (Liverpool)1
    Section 355 Review of Output: Juice FM (Liverpool)1 When a local commercial radio licence undergoes a change of control (this includes licence transfer), Ofcom is required, under section 355 of the Communications Act 2003 (the Act), to undertake a review of the effects or likely effects of the change of control in relation to: • the quality and range of programmes included in the service; • the character of the service, and; • the extent to which Ofcom’s duty under section 314 of the Act is performed in relation to the service. Ofcom’s duty under section 314 of the Act relates to securing the inclusion of an appropriate amount of local material, and a suitable proportion of locally-made programmes in the service. Under section 356 of the Act, where it appears to Ofcom from its review that the change of control would be prejudicial to any of the three matters listed above, then it must vary the licence, by including such conditions as it considers appropriate, with a view to ensuring that the relevant change of control is not so prejudicial. In doing so, any new or varied conditions must be such that the licence holder would have satisfied them throughout the three months immediately before the change of control. Ofcom is required to publish a report of its review, setting out its conclusions and any steps it proposes to take under section 356. Where Ofcom proposes to vary the licence, it is required to give the licence holder a reasonable opportunity to make representations about the variation. In October 2015, a change of control took place at Juice Holdco Limited, which holds a local commercial FM licence for the Liverpool area (AL207).
