AGP Executive Report

Last update: 39 minutes ago

Employment & Cost of Living: A new Employment Leave Bill passed its second reading, with analysis from the PSA warning it will cut overtime and allowances for more than 200,000 workers, hitting people in health, public services, retail and manufacturing. Water Safety: World Drowning Prevention Day brings grim forecasts: up to 101 preventable drownings could occur in 2026, with men aged 25+ and risky solo water activities flagged as key factors. Wellington Culture & Community: Work is set to start in early August on Te Aro’s first central city park since 2006, with completion expected March 2027 and design shaped by mana whenua and Chinese community history. Local Economy & Events: Te Pae Christchurch says conventions and events have generated nearly $74m for the region over the past year, supporting hundreds of jobs and drawing large international gatherings. Digital Inclusion: TUANZ argues connectivity must be treated as essential infrastructure, noting 87% fibre access but persistent affordability and access gaps. Books & Voices: Whitcoulls’ Top 100 list shows a surge in Aotearoa authors, with 26 writers making the cut and fantasy dominating the top spots. Health Equity: A universal RSV vaccination programme is highlighted as a potential way to ease winter hospital pressure, especially for Māori and Pacific children.
