[NZCPR-Weekly] Public Protest Matters
This week, we look at public advocacy in local government, our NZCPR Guest Commentator, Michael Coote urges those concerned about flaws in the proposed Auckland Unitary Plan, who are eligible to put in a submission, to do so before the 5pm July 22 deadline, and our poll asks whether the need for property owners to seek 'cultural assessments' should be removed from the plan.
