Friday, 1 December 2000, 10:45 am Press Release: Unknown
Auckland City has been asked by members of the Onehunga
community to consider adding fluoride to the water supplied
from the Onehunga bores and treatment facility.
In
response to the request, Auckland City has commissioned an
independent market research company to conduct a survey to
find out the community’s views before the Maungakiekie
Community Board and City Councillors consider the
matter.
The Council will actively gain feedback from the
community before making a decision.
All residents
currently on the electoral roll and business ratepayers in
the Onehunga water supply area will shortly receive a survey
form. This form should be completed and returned by December
17th.
Information on this issue will be included with the
survey form. In addition, displays and further information
can be viewed on the ground floor of Onehunga Chambers,
alongside the Onehunga Library at 85 Church St.

In 2023, the government is clutching its pearls because senior Labour MP Damien O’Connor has dared suggest that Gaza’s civilian population - already living under apartheid and subjected to sixteen years of an illegal embargo, and now being herded together and slaughtered indiscriminately amid the destruction of their homes, schools, mosques, and hospitals - are also victims of what amounts to genocide.

“The Human Rights Commission’s appointment of a second Chief Executive is just the latest example of a taxpayer-funded bureaucracy serving itself at the expense of delivery for New Zealanders,” says ACT MP Todd Stephenson. More
