Rates Rises – why you should be worried
Local authority spending and burgeoning council debt is one of the year’s big issues, writes Jane Clifton, and the Government is about to announce a top-to-bottom reform of local authorities. Also in this issue, Rebecca Macfie surveys Christchurch one year one from the earthquake that killed 185 people; Hamish McKenzie interviews TVNZ’s US correspondent Tim Wilson, who is homeward bound; and Craig Sisterson profiles New Zealand crime writer Paul Thomas, who has brought back his offbeat detective Tito Ihaka after a 15-year hiatus.
