Council, citizens’ group relations turn sour

By Sue Newman The relationship between the people’s organisation, the Ashburton Citizens’ Association and the Ashburton District Council has gone sour.

Just one year after it appointed two councillors as its representatives on the association, the council has cancelled the deal, saying the association’s constitution did not meet the council’s requirements for councillor appointment.

This decision came on the heels of a request from the association, asking the council to change its current appointees, Robin Kilworth and Donna Favel, saying those appointments were not meeting its need.

Rather than change the two councillors, council decided it would no longer be involved with the association.

“Council, however, will be happy to respond to any request for any councillor, the mayor or for staff to attend meetings to explain policies – providing those meetings don’t clash with other commitments,” mayor Angus McKay said.

“This is all a wee bit sad, but we can move on from this. I believe we can have a better relationship in the future.”

If the arrangement hadn’t worked for the association, it hadn’t been entirely satisfactory for council either, Mr McKay said, particularly when council representatives were asked to leave meetings when they went “into committee”.

The council’s attitude to the association was made clear in a report to the council meeting – “the aims and objectives of the association appear to be that of a political lobby group rather than the community associations the council currently works with ... rather than being a community organisation, the council believes the association has become a political lobby group.”

Councillor Donna Favel did not agree with Mr McKay, saying the council’s decision flew in the face of democracy.

“There has been a genuine effort

by the association to learn more about council and its processes.

This group is not afraid to tell us what their thoughts are. The irony is not lost on me that at the same time as we’re putting our annual plan out for community consultation we’re removing councillor appointments from our citizens’ association.”

On one hand the council was saying it wanted to keep communication channels open but it clearly wasn’t walking the talk, Mrs Favel said.

Councillor Ken Cutforth said he had mixed feelings about the council’s relationship with the citizens’ association.

“It’s getting the balance between being a ginger group and doing things constructively for the community to make it a better place that’s hard.”

Councillors Favel and Kilworth abstained from voting on the motion to withdraw council appointments to the association.

After the meeting, association vice-chairman Russell Ellis said he was disappointed that councillors heard just one side of the debate.

“We requested an opportunity to speak at yesterday’s council meeting, and we did that in time and through the right channels, but this was denied.”

The council provides an opportunity for any person or organisation to speak to councillors at the start of its six weekly council meeting.

Whether this is granted or not is up to the mayor.

“What gets me is the councillors can stand up and say what they think, even though they’ve never been to our meetings, and we weren’t given an opportunity to speak and put our case.”

Mr Ellis said he failed to understand why the councillors feared the association becoming a political lobby group; that crossover was inevitable for any community group that was involved in community issues, he said.

“We’re looking forward to seeing who is standing for council this year and who is not,” he said.

Olympic medallist Sarah Walker turns on the speed at Methven.

BMX star beaten to the line

By Myles Hume Olympic silver medallist Sarah Walker is used to pressure, regularly matching it with the best in the BMX biking world.

But yesterday at Methven Primary School, she never would have expected to be going toe-totoe with 10-year-old scooter rider Logan Stockdill on a makeshift bike course.

Walker made the trip down from her home in Cambridge to visit the Mid Canterbury school after it won a Beef + Lamb competition, thanks to local farmers

who nominated the school after re-registering for the electoral roll.

Not knowing what to expect, the triple world champion hopped on a BMX bike and went up against the school’s nifty scooter rider, weaving in and out of cones and over a wooden box – the race going down to the final centimetre and claimed by the young Methven Primary schooler.

“He did really well, it would have been interesting if there were a few straights, but I think we will have to go back and have a look at that photo finish,” Walker joked.

During her stopover to the town she used to visit with the family on skiing trips, Walker – an Iron Maiden who features on the Beef + Lamb adverts with fellow Olympians Sophie Pascoe and Lisa Carrington – took time to answer prepared questions from the Methven youngsters after an official powhiri welcome.

“What was it like winning a silver medal?” pupil Sam van den Heuvel asked.

Walker responded saying: “It is hard to explain but it was a proud moment for me”.

But to show the pupils what it was really like, Walker asked Sam

to stand on a bench while she revealed her hefty silver medal from her New Zealand Olympic Team jacket, placing it round the youngster’s neck.

Walker also told the youngsters about her rigorous training schedule that involves three hours gym work, riding and sprint training a day along with a strict diet.

“What makes me go fast? Well on the day I won the silver medal I had porridge and banana for breakfast ... and I also eat lots of beef and lamb, that really helps me go fast,” she said.

Walker returned to her

New laws take aim at cyber-bullying THE FACTS • Seventeen per cent of school children report cyber bullying which is distressing.

• Adolescent women are more lightly to suffer than their male counterparts.

• Around 50 per cent of all cyber bullying victims know their bully as someone from school.

• Cyber-bullying occurs in high and low decile schools.

Urban and rural areas had comparable rates.

• It is believed around 50% of children stay silent about cyber-bulling.

By Myles Hume Mid Cantabrians at the coalface of cyber-bullying believe prosecution for the “destructive” behaviour could serve as a strong deterrent.

Cyber-bullying is rife throughout the country and Mid Canterbury is no different.

Ashburton College has recently dealt with a spate of online abuse, involving a group of teenage girls.

And Year 13 pupil Jas Andrada recently told the Guardian about her ordeal with an online attacker.

But new laws revealed yesterday could spell the end of cyberbullying.

Cabinet has adopted proposals put up by the Law Commission last August, which will see cyber-

bullies that incite suicide be sent to prison for up to three years.

The new fast-tracked laws will also mean people who use a communications device to cause harm could be sent to prison for up to three months or fined $2000.

Ashburton College principal Grant McMillan has been vocal in his quest to stamp out cyberbullying.

He could only see positives for the new law, pointing to a gaping hole it would fill in modern-day society, the onus on the Ministry of Education to create guidelines about what bullying is and advice on how to deal with it and the power given to Netsafe to deal with complaints quickly, and pass them on the district courts if need so.

“I think as people learn about it

and understand the laws then it could deter people.

“I think in the same way that the road code and road laws shape driver behaviour and make it safe for everyone, these rules will shape our behaviour in the cyber world.”

Youth Aid officer Rob Hooper, of Ashburton, said police already enforced the Telecommunications Act when locals misused phones and the internet.

“But I imagine new laws that could come in probably just reflect how society has moved in the new age of socialising,” he said.

Mr Hooper said it was about educating teenagers and parents about appropriate use of communication devices, and parents being aware of what their children are doing with technology.

Ashburton College’s Jas Andrada knows first-hand what it’s like to fall victim to cyber-bullying.

She told her story to the Guardian earlier this year of how she was harassed by an older girl, who spread rumours about her in the community as well as posting malicious messages on Facebook.

She welcomed the new laws around cyber-bullying.

“I think it will stop people from doing it, as long as teenagers would realise how heavy the consequences are,” Jas said.

“I think that it (cyber-bullying) is very detrimental to a person’s wellbeing because even if the bullies are not there beside or in front of you, their words would still be in your mind to haunt you whenever possible.”

For sale rumours ‘incorrect’ Fulton Hogan, the privately held construction firm, has scotched speculation it’s being prepared for sale as being “totally incorrect”.

Managing director Nick Miller said the Christchurch-based company has engaged Credit Suisse and its local counterpart First NZ Capital to look at the firm’s balance sheet. Speculation in the Australian Financial Review that Fulton Hogan is being prepared for sale is “totally incorrect”, he said in a statement.

“As part of standard, prudent governance the investment banks concerned are simply advising on options to optimise Fulton Hogan’s balance sheet,” Miller said. “Fulton Hogan has a strong, stable and committed shareholder base and no current or foreseeable plans for fundamental changes to our ownership, beyond the buy-back of the cornerstone Shell shareholding which has been in progress since 2009.”

Fulton Hogan has been looking at ways to strengthen its balance sheet by retaining more earnings and selling non-core assets such as forestry and land, and last year delayed two buy-back instalments for Shell New Zealand to consider a potential acquisition of some resource-based assets in New Zealand.

The company ended a near 30-year partnership with Shell in 2009, with a staggered buyback of the oil company’s 37 per cent stake.

The construction firm is bouncing back from a torrid year in 2012 after constant rainfall stalled its Pacific Highway project in New South Wales and was seen as a major cause behind a 89 per cent plunge in annual profit to just $7.9 million.

Since then Fulton Hogan has ironed out those difficulties and recorded a strong first-half result, with a forward order book of $3.7 billion.

A new state of the art groomer is on its way to Mt Hutt.

State of the art groomer on way

By Susan Sandys A $650,000 groomer will arrive at Mt Hutt next month, as part of a range of new equipment destined to improve the ski area.

Other developments include the ski area’s crèche being upgraded to cater for under-2s, a $300,000 triple chairlift cable, installation of a new road barrier and new kitchen equipment.

Manager James McKenzie said the groomer, a Kassbohrer PB600 Winch, would arrive from Germany in May. The ski area had traded in its 2008 model to get the machine. The older groomer had done 6500 hours, and it was generally at that point that the ski area traded in its groomers.

“So we get reasonably good

quality machinery running on the mountain, so we are not running with old kit,” Mr McKenzie said.

He said skiers would notice the difference in a better quality of skiing surface on the slopes as the new machine hit the slopes.

It was a winch machine, so would be on the ski area’s steepest slopes. Winch machines have cables which attach to anchors on the mountain, so they can defy gravity to groom steep slopes, being assisted upwards by the pulling power of a winch.

New kitchen equipment in the day lodge will include new ovens and fryers and other equipment leading to increased efficiency and shorter customer waiting times.

A new road barrier will snake around about 250 metres of the access road, including two cor-

ners, improving motorist safety.

The crèche is receiving new facilities including a sleeping room and changing room for under-twos, as well as improvements to its art facilities.

Rocks have been removed from trails such as International and Morning Glory to increase their smoothness, and new safety bars have been installed on the Summit Six. The rental departments will receive about $200,000 of new equipment including skis, snowboards, clothing and helmets.

The ski area has already spent about $300,000 this summer on a new triple chairlift cable, something it replaces about every 20 years.

Altogether the ski area is spending more than $1 million on the improvements, on top of

Wheels Week ready to roar again

By Gabrielle Stuart There is less than a month until Wheels Week Plus kicks off again in Ashburton, and with new events planned it is expected to be bigger than ever before.

The Mid Canterbury Mountainbike Club will be holding a relay ride this year, joining the annual programme of racing, displays, rides, car trials, sprints and parades.

Chairman Ross Butterick helped organise the wheels weeks events during the first few years in Ashburton 24 years ago, and has watched it expand.

“We felt there was a need in Ashburton for something like it.

It started off very slow, but it’s really grown since. It isn’t just for cars, we have everything with wheels right through to bikes and mobility scooters, so it involves the entire community.

“This year there’s even a special wheels week church service, so there really is something for everyone.”

He said this year’s Wheels Week would technically be two, with too much happening to fit into just one week.

“It’ll be Wheels Week Plus this year, but the programme is still packed. We have a new mountainbiking event happening, and we have rally driver Hayden Paddon as a guest speaker.”

$400,000 on its maintenance programme this summer/autumn.

Maintenance includes expenditure on the access road, sewage treatment facilities, ski lifts, snow making and vehicles.

Meanwhile, this year’s ski season opening date is June 15, one week later than last year.

Mr McKenzie said winter seemed to be moving back every year.

Last year the mountain had opened on June 9, but a lot of “incentivising” had to be undertaken to attract skiers that early in winter.

He said snow conditions were more reliable in mid June, compared to early June.

“Snow is always more of a better guarantee, the later it goes, rather than have a sketchy product at the start we would rather extend the season at the end,” he said.

Campaign to raise stadium funds well on the way

Although this year is looking like a big one, they’re expecting 2014 to be even bigger when they celebrate the 25th year of Wheels Week events in Ashburton.

“We’re expecting some special stuff for next year, but that’s not for a while. Organising this year is keeping us flat out right now.”

Registrations are still open for

the parade and most other Wheels Week events. Programmes are now available at the Information Centre, Heartland Bank and Rosco’s Dismantlers.

Three design options for Cathedral Three designs options for a new cathedral in Christchurch have been released for public feedback.

The options include rebuilding the original Christ Church Cathedral, a traditional timber construction and a contemporary structure.

Repairing and rebuilding the original is the most expensive option, costing between $104 million and $221 million and taking between six and 22 years to build.

The traditional building would take between five and 22 years to build and would cost between $85 million and $181 million.

The contemporary structure

Two people have been arrested following a police pursuit from Kingsland to Epsom in Auckland yesterday afternoon.

Inspector Willie Taylor said police received a call that a person was making threats to an occupant of a Kingsland house.

“The vehicle was followed by the police helicopter Eagle until it was in a position where we could get a lot of police units there,” said Mr Taylor. Four police cars joined the pursuit until the vehicle was stopped where armed police confronted the pair. “The occupants of the vehicle were arrested and they will be facing a number of charges,” Mr Taylor said. -APNZ

would be the cheapest and quickest to build, taking between four and nine years, and would cost between $56 million and $74 million.

The Anglican Diocese and Church Property Trustees have called for public feedback on the ideas.

However, those opposing the demolition of Christ Church Cathedral said it was too early for Anglican church officials to release their own proposals while court action determining the fate of the building was continuing.

A Court of Appeal hearing is expected to take place in a couple

of weeks. The Great Christchurch Buildings Trust took the neoGothic style cathedral’s owner, the Church Property Trust, to court in October in a last-ditch legal bid to have it repaired.

The cathedral was badly damaged in the February 22, 2011 quake, which snapped its spire.

Its damaged state prompted the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority to issue a section 38 unsafe building notice, which demanded urgent action.

Two public forums will be held this month, and views on the designs will be sought until early May when Church Property

Trustees will select their preferred option.

Restore Christ Church Cathedral group spokesper son Mark Belton welcomed the options, saying the important thing was that the Anglican Church had acknowledged the building could be saved.

“We are thrilled - it is very important the church has put forward an option that includes full restoration.”

Mr Belton doubted the figure put forward by the church, saying other estimates put the cost between $90 million and $120 million.

Just three weeks after it was launched, the public supporters’ campaign for the EA Networks Centre is well on the way towards meeting its $125,000 target.

The campaign is part of the final leg drive to raise $5 million in community funds for the $32 million centre to be built off Ashburton’s Riverside Drive.

More than $4.5 million has already been raised in business pledges, grants and donations.

When the public campaign was launched, fundraising committee chair Chris Robertson said it would provide an opportunity for families to play their part in helping the stadium become a reality.

Every dollar given would represent an important step along the way to achieving the fundraising goal of $125,000 by the end of June, he said.

“We’re delighted to have such a great response in just three weeks.”

Just under $25,000 has been raised.

Donations of any size are needed and Mr Robertson said the fundraising committee had been heartened by the num-

CRUMB

ber of people electing to take some of the larger sponsorship packages.

Almost three quarters of the sponsorships had come through $500 packages which gave the sponsor the opportunity to have their name engraved on a seat plaque.

Two donations had come in for $4000 and $5000 and Mid Canterbury Badminton had added another $15,000 to the pool, he said.

“All up, the community fund needs another $400,000 to reach the $5 million target by late June.

“That means everyone’s donation is needed.”

The district’s school children will have an opportunity to play their part in fundraising when schools across the district hold a mufti-day on April 19 Guardian readers will find a flyer in Saturday’s paper detailing the ways in which people can become supporters.

The BNZ has become the official home for the supporters campaign.

The EA Networks Centre is about to go out for tender and work is expected to start onsite in July.

It is anticipated to open in mid 2015.

NCEA exam stats released

By Myles Hume

Mid Canterbury’s two secondary schools sit either side of the wider-region’s average academic exam scores.

Yesterday, participation-based results for last year’s National Certificate of Education (NCEA) exams were released for secondary schools in the Canterbury region, which sat above the national average in all Levels 1, 2, and 3.

Included in those statistics were Mid Canterbury’s Mount Hutt College and Ashburton College who have posted above and below the average pass rate set by their Canterbury counterparts.

In Canterbury, 83.5 per cent passed Level 1, 86.5 per cent achieved Level 2 and 77.1 per cent claimed a certificate in Level 3.

Rangi Ruru Girls’ School was the top performing school overall, with Christchurch Girls’ High School taking top honours out of state schools while Lincoln High School rated as the top co-educational school.

Ashburton College’s pass rate sat about eight per cent below Canterbury’s average achievement rate in all levels, but principal Grant McMillan said the college was improving each year.

“We are below, but we are also on par with other schools. We are on an upward shift and have clear goals of where we intend to be,” Mr McMillan said.

The college’s pass rate for Level 3 had leapt almost six per cent compared with 2011.

“We are also closing the gap on schools we have set as equivalents which we expect to meet or

exceed in the near future.”

Hoping to reach the scores posted by schools in the comparable decile seven category, Ashburton College’s pass rate was 74.3 per cent in Level 1, 78.3 per cent in Level 2 and 69.1 per cent in Level 3.

Being a community college, Mr McMillan said the college encompassed pupils from across the district, catering for a quarter of all school-aged pupils in Mid Canterbury.

“There are other programmes the college runs which many schools don’t have to and we know there is an effect there for our overall statistics.

“But that’s not stopping us from aiming where we want to be and where we need to be.”

Meanwhile, Mount Hutt College recorded pass rates above the national and Canterbury average in Levels 1 and 2.

The pass rate for Mount Hutt College in Level 1 was 84.6 per cent and a “pleasing” 90 per cent in Level 2.

The school’s Level 3 pupils fell below the Canterbury region’s average with 71.7 per cent achieving.

“The pass rates are certainly in the areas we expect them to be, and we were pleased with Level 2 results. They were a year level of students who were quite motivated academically,” principal John Schreurs said.

With the college being small in comparison with most secondary schools, Mr Schreurs said the cohort of pupils could have a considerable effect on results, pointing out some pupils sitting Level 3 were not aiming for a Level 3 certificate.

2012 NCEA PASS RATE Level 1 % Ashburton College 74.3 Mt Hutt College 84.6 Canterbury 83.5 National 79.1

Army cleared over fire The army has been cleared of any misconduct by a court of inquiry after a hot fragment from a grenade sparked a blaze during training at the New Zealand Army’s West Melton Rifle Range.

The January 23 fire which destroyed 50ha at West Melton, happened days after two large blazes in the parched Selwyn District.

Residents from five houses near the West Melton Aerodrome were evacuated, while nearby property owners were told to prepare to leave as the fire spread north-east and threatened to jump Weedons Ross Rd. Five helicopters with monsoon buckets, 16 fire engines and water tankers managed to bring the blaze under control that night.

A soldier suffered burns and was treated for his injuries.

Toxic to dogs Most people may know chocolate is a danger to dogs, but what about grapes?

A beloved dog died after ingesting the fruit in a Hastings backyard, and its owners want to warn others about the toxic risk. Fetch, a 3-year-old wire-haired Jack Russell, fell ill on a Saturday, and by Tuesday he had gone into renal failure.

On Thursday his health had deteriorated so badly, they had to put him down.

A biopsy later revealed the cause was grape toxicity.

Kaylene and her husband Gavin said it was a hard lesson to learn, but that’s why they posted it on Facebook to make people aware. they had no idea this could happen.

pleted its inquiry into the fire.

It found the range practice was conducted in accordance with existing fire permit procedures and the range standing orders.

A fireman and fire appliance were present and this was over and above the requirements of range standing orders.

The court of inquiry said procedures are already under way to address findings to minimise any future fire risk.

These included; enlargement of effective fire breaks along the range boundary and inside the range, enlargement of the cleared gravel area around the grenade range, the assessment of already cleared impact areas on other ranges at West Melton to reduce fire risk, and revision of the range management plan with defence contractors to ensure ongoing maintenance is sufficient to minimise fire risk.

Akaroa wedding a Masterchef feast

Some tips for the weekend

By Sam Morton Ashburton’s celebrity chef Chantelle O’Brien tied the knot last weekend in the beautiful holiday spot of Akaroa.

Ms O’Brien, now Chantelle Quinn, married her Irish partner during a private ceremony, before posting on her Facebook profile, “Got Married”.

The service, held at St Patrick’s Catholic Church, saw her former Masterchef contestants turn out in force to cook at the function, wowing her and the entire guest list with their cuisine delights.

A guest, who wishes to remain anonymous, described the function as “one big party”.

“It was absolutely brilliant,” the guest said.

“There were four Masterchefs slaving away in the kitchen, some came just to be part of it and even the Masterchef competition winner was in the crowd supporting Chantelle.

“There was Masterchefs for miles and the food was divine.”

The guest reflected further on the occasion, pointing out the weather was brilliant and the company fantastic.

“It was just brilliant, from start to finish,” the guest said.

“Judging by people’s sore heads the next day, it’s likely everyone else thought the same. I’m happy for them both ... it really couldn’t have gone any better.”

Mrs Quinn is now enjoying her honeymoon, before returning to Ashburton today.

Prior to the occasion, the Guardian understands the Quinns agreed to an exclusive deal with a national women’s magazine, preventing them from talking about the event.

Photos from the wedding and reception are likely to be published within the week.

CAA campaign to reduce crashes

By Sam Morton Flying 20,000 feet above ground level, sitting at the controls of a weighty mechanical beast – it’s fair to say you need to have your wits about you.

Any minor mishap could prove to be major, fatal even - as has been the case with a series of recent aviation incidents throughout New Zealand in the past few years.

The Civil Aviation Authority of New Zealand is keen to reduce crash figures and this year, experienced pilots and safety technicians are hosting safety seminars at aero clubs around the country.

The seminar is en route to Ashburton next week, adopting the

theme of ‘Situational Awareness’ and ‘Collision Avoidance’.

CAA communications advisor Matthew Shore said the theme was a paramount message for pilots and aviation staff to heed.

“We have had too many incidents in the past few years and as an authority we are doing everything we can to bring those numbers down,” Mr Shore said.

“Unfortunately, mistakes in the air can be deadly and too often we see planes involved in collisions.

The safety seminar is focusing on having your wits about you in the air and even though I’m not a pilot, I can imagine it is incredibly hard to control the aircraft,” Mr Shore said.

During the seminar, one major

historic event is touched on to demonstrate the tragic consequences mistakes in the air can have, as well as a whole host of real life issues often discussed in an open forum.

“It’s about allowing everybody the opportunity to put their own experiences forward and to learn from other’s mistakes – it’s very much a two-way thing, not a lecture,” Mr Shore said.

The historic event, used as a prime example, dates back to December 30, 1989, when two Cessna 207 aircraft departed from the Milford Sound area for Queenstown. The aircraft collided in mid-air, with one aircraft landing safely and the other falling to the ground, killing all seven people

Dr Smith said the houses would enable people to maintain their work, school and community links in their local area while their repairs and rebuilds are being carried out.

Two-, three- and four-bedroom homes will be built in addition to the existing 83 units at Linwood Park, Kaiapoi Domain and Rawhiti Domain which are part of the Government’s temporary accommodation service.

ASHBURTON GUARDIAN, Friday, April 5, 2013

OPINION

www.guardianONLINE.co.nz

Local input into liquor laws a real positive T

he council survey on alcohol licences in the district could throw up some interesting outcomes.

Whether those opinions will be informed or simply emotive remains to be seen, and how much weight the survey will carry is also unclear.

The most important point though is that the council is using the new Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act to get a decent snapshot on how the community feels about the sale and consumption of alcohol in the district.

OUR VIEW The new law enables local councils to put together their own local alcohol policies (LAP) and determine the number of liquor outlets, their location and their opening hours.

Mid Canterbury of course is different from most districts as the Ashburton Licensing Trust still dominates the local alcohol scene, but since the trust had to relinquish its booze monopoly, the liquor trade has exploded around the district.

In this changing environment it is crucial to put in place a firm policy, based on the views of our community, which will give our elected leadership guidance in their decisionmaking around new outlets, renewing old licences or discussing opening hours.

The Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act has been driven by a sharp increase in late night off-licences, which many feel have contributed in increased

drunken behaviour and violence.

This phenomenon has been particularly visible in New Zealand’s major cities and their less affluent areas but has luckily not been a major factor in Ashburton incidents.

Supermarkets and smaller shops in the district are trading alcohol after hours, but so far any possible negative impact has not grabbed any big headlines.

The current survey however, will enable the citizens most affected by the current outlets to share their views on having a bottle shop or pub in their neighbourhood.

Whether or not customers at suburban bottle shops cause more trouble than patrons at the pubs in the CBD remains to be seen, but the survey among

Even though the older generations may not understand why youngsters want to stay out until 3am, they should not deny the youngsters the opportunity to do so, as long as they don’t become a public nuisance.

Whatever the outcomes, having a local committee with differing voices determining our own rules on liquor licences can only be positive.

That unusual state of affairs came about when the Mayfield Lions Club decided to bake a novelty cake as part of an auction during its recent convention.

Each club created a cake along a nursery rhyme theme.

The cakes were auctioned with proceeds going to the Heart Foundation.

Mayfield’s cake fetched $2000 and the cake itself became afternoon tea at Coldstream House.

Rennie ‘surprised’ by PM Key’s call State Services Commissioner Iain Rennie has conceded he was “surprised” when he learned Prime Minister John Key had contacted the GCSB boss Ian Fletcher directly.

Mr Rennie said his recollection of the meeting with Mr Key at which Mr Fletcher’s name first came up was that they would go away and consider who else might have been suitable and the SSC would make contact to assess their interest.

He did not recall Mr Key say-

Jesse Ryder shared a drink with two men accused of attacking him moments before he was allegedly assaulted, a court heard yesterday.

Witness reports over the highprofile incident involving the star cricketer outside a Christchurch bar last week were “wildly inaccurate and misleading”, a lawyer for one of the men said.

Reports of a “Jesse hate crime” were grossly inaccurate, the court heard.

The accused pair, aged 20 and 37, appeared in the dock at Christchurch District Court at the post-quake temporary Nga Hau e Wha Marae venue yesterday.

They had been out for a family dinner when they bumped into the famous sportsman.

There was a dispute which came after a meeting that started out as “highly convivial”, with drinks being shared, said defence counsel Jonathan Eaton, appearing for the older man.

Both men, from Christchurch, were yesterday granted interim name suppression.

The 37-year-old has been charged with assaulting Ryder and also with reckless disregard for the safety of others injuring Ryder.

The younger man, his nephew, is facing two charges of assault, one in connection with the older man.

Charge sheets say the older man is a builder while the younger man is a carpet layer. They both live at the same city address.

They were both well-dressed yesterday, the older man wearing a tie, the younger in a suit with shirt buttoned all the way up.

Ryder, 28 was punched and kicked outside Aikmans bar in Merivale, Christchurch, early last Thursday after a season’s end night out with his Wellington Firebirds’ teammates.

He suffered head and lung inju-

ries and after spending two days in an induced coma at Christchurch Hospital is now recuperating at his Wellington home.

Ryder is back on his feet and recovering well, his manager Aaron Klee says.

But yesterday, the court heard that witness reports that it was an unexpected and unprovoked incident were wrong.

Mr Eaton said Ryder did not suffer a fractured skull or collapsed lung in the attack.

The police summary of facts describes a fight and a short time later, one punch.

Ryder’s injuries came as a consequence of falling to the ground, “after being punched once”, he said.

Mr Eaton and Adam Couchman, defence counsel for the nephew, asked for their clients to be given interim name and image suppression.

If the men had their photographs published it could jeopardise a fair trial, which Mr Eaton said hinged on “who is alleged to have done what”.

Police prosecutor sergeant Neil Williams agreed with him.

Judge MacAskill granted suppression and remanded the pair on bail, with conditions not to enter licensed premises between 7pm and 7am, not to drink alcohol, and not to associate with Ryder or witnesses, until April 18.

An argument over suppression would be held at a later date.

Police inquiries were ongoing, he said, and he had not been able to yet view the CCTV footage of the alleged incident.

Outside court, Mr Eaton refused to elaborate on what was said inside court.

“Everyone has to understand that once charges have been laid there’s only place that these issues are properly resolved, that’s in the court, and that’s where they will be resolved,” he said.

However, on behalf of his client he wished “Mr Ryder a very full and speedy recovery”.

ing he would contact Mr Fletcher himself. “So I was a little surprised when I had a call from Marten Wevers.”

Mr Key had told Mr Wevers he had made the call and advised him to expect a call from Mr Fletcher himself.

However, Mr Rennie said that did not mean Mr Key acted inappropriately. Mr Rennie said he was not surprised that Mr Fletcher’s name had come up in relation to the job as he was aware of Mr Fletcher’s

career overseas. “I have worked under this Government for four years and in that time I have never received pressure from ministers to act in a particular way and the PM in particular has always been particularly scrupulous.”

Mr Rennie said that in hindsight, it would have been better if he had contacted Mr Fletcher himself because of the perception issues created by Mr Key contacting him.

However, there was no legal, or moral or ethical bar.

Mr Rennie said the role the Prime Minister had taken in Mr Fletcher’s appointment was not atypical of the way such appointments were made.

He said unlike core public service roles such as the Secretary of the Treasury, the head of the GCSB and others such as the Chief of Defence Force, the Police Commissioner, director of NZSIS were all positions appointed by ministers and who serve at the pleasure of a minister.

Just hours before her body was discovered in Matamata, 18-yearold Jovaan Rahera Graham got in a car and left Rotorua - ignoring pleas to stay.

The body of the teenager was found by security guards outside Pohlen Hospital about 4am on Wednesday.

A police post-mortem yesterday found she died instantly after being hit by a car in the Kaimai Range.

The driver of that vehicle was allegedly abducted and assaulted but managed to escape and raise the alarm.

Ms Graham, who had moved to Tauranga, had spent Tuesday night at her cousin Kama Corbett’s Rotorua home, arriving with a man and woman unknown to Ms Corbett.

Ms Corbett, also 18, said the trio left about midnight to return to Tauranga.

“I asked her [Jovaan] to stay but she wouldn’t listen to me,” she said.

“She was going to stay and I was going to pay for her to go home in the morning. She was all for it then she went outside and came back and said, ‘I am going home’.

I gave her a hug and kiss and they took off.

“I texted her father the next morning to see if she got home okay. He said she was found dead

that morning and I just broke down. I didn’t know what to think.”

Ms Corbett said it still hadn’t sunk in that her cousin was dead.

“It’s kind of shocking because I was the last to see her,” she said.

“I am kicking myself because I should have dragged her inside ... but she was 18, old enough to make her own decisions.”

Ms Corbett said the talkative hairdressing student got on with everyone and “always had the fancy hair, was always looking good”.

Ms Graham’s grandmother, Sarah Wiwarena, of Rotorua, said she got a call from her son, Manahi Graham, on Wednesday morning.

“He said I needed to go over there, Jovaan was dead.”

She said the family had been told no foul play was involved in the death.

“It’s a blessing to us to know that.”

Ms Wiwarena said her “outgoing”, “strong-minded” granddaughter was likely be farewelled in Tauranga and buried with her koro in Putaruru.

A 30-year -old man and 23-year-old woman will appear in Tauranga District Court today charged with abduction, theft of a vehicle, unlawful use of a vehicle and injuring with intent.

Withdrawal ‘to put work at risk’

By Matthew Theunissen in Afghanistan The head of the Provincial Reconstruction Team operating in Afghanistan’s Bamiyan province has conceded a decade’s work could be at risk should insurgents in neighbouring provinces infiltrate the largely peaceful region.

PRT director John Mataira, of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, also said the Governor of Bamiyan, Habiba Sorabi, had asked if the New Zealanders could stay for longer than this month’s withdrawal, which is now well under way.

“She actually asked if we could stay a bit longer, but when we explained the principles around our leaving she acknowledged that we’d been here for 10 years.”

Bamiyan is bordered by eight other provinces, including the relatively hostile Bagram and Parwan Provinces.

Asked if New Zealand’s good work could be undone if the lines of defence to neighbouring provinces was not be maintained, Mr Mataira said: “I guess you could say that, yes.”

Mr Mataira told media at Kiwi Base in Bamiyan overnight he was confident that local security forces had the equipment and training necessary to keep the peace in the region.

“The security situation is very benign. We haven’t had any major incidents for quite some time, and there’s no evidence to suggest that we will do so.”

He conceded that attacks could start up again in “the fighting season”, when the snows melt on the vast mountain ranges around Bamiyan.

Speaking through a translator, Bamiyan police chief General Abdul Razak said he was “greatly sorry” that the New Zealanders were going home, and he echoed the concern

addressed by Mr Maitara.

“Recently, people know that the PRT will leave Bamiyan, and this report has also gone to the insurgents.

“They are aware that the PRT will leave Bamiyan, and some of the insurgents are saying that they’ll start their activities in Bamiyan again.”

However he was confident his police were up to the task.

“Some people coming from Parwan and Bagram travel into Bamiyan to do some activities here, but we have peace and we have people’s support, so we’re able to diffuse the situations.

“Bamiyan people are against violence; against war. We’re able to take care of the whole situation.”

Nonetheless, Mr Razak hoped the lines of communication between the the Afghan National Police (ANP) and the Afghan National Army (ANA) would improve once the PRT depart, preferably resulting in a permanent contingent of soldiers in the region.

“I hope that after the PRT leaves they [the ANA] will co-operate with ANP, and if any problems happen in the future the army will come and help us.

“It would be good if we could have a company of ANA in here, just in case if anything comes to Bamiyan they will help us to stop these activities.”

Meanwhile, the officer in charge of packing up Kiwi Base’s contents and sending them home says it’s the most complex job he has ever done in his 26 years as a logistician.

Lieutenant Colonel Richard Weston said it would involve about 100 truckloads and 35 full Hercules planes to remove the 10 years-worth of equipment from the base.

A significant difficulty with the exercise was to leave enough equipment so the base could remain operational until the last day.

A “pathetic” fine for a man who abandoned a toddler in a pram in the middle of the night has renewed calls for judges to impose minimum sentences.

The 22-month-old child was found on a street in central Christchurch about 3am last Thursday by a resident who heard him crying.

James Craig Duffy, 43, was fined $300 in Christchurch District Court yesterday after pleading guilty to leaving a child without making reasonable provision for supervision and care.

The boy’s 29-year-old father, who was also charged, did not appear in court.

The incident follows other highprofile abandonment cases in which judges have chosen to impose less than the maximum $2000 penalty.

A mother who left her five children in a parked van while she gambled at SkyCity Casino was discharged without conviction last year, while in 2010 a man who left his 18-monthold son in a car outside a Wellington strip club was fined $200.

Sensible Sentencing Trust national spokesman Garth McVicar said the public was frustrated with judges handing down “pathetic sentences”.

He said it was unbelievable that

A Mid North tow truck driver has been seriously assaulted while visiting a home. The driver, who was acting on behalf of a Whangarei car company, went to a Kaikohe property on Tuesday morning to repossess a Subaru Legacy stationwagon. Men from the address and neighbouring properties then allegedly set upon him, knocking him to ground. A 60-yearold man has appeared in court.

“There has been a certain amount of balancing required,” he said.

Mr Weston was confident the withdrawal would be completed by

anyone responsible for a child could behave that way.

“The judges have a duty to make it clear that society doesn’t accept that sort of behaviour.

“I think the courts and the judges are being negligent. Obviously the parent is the first person to be negligent, but the courts have got a duty to uphold the law and make sure society is as it should be.”

Mr McVicar said there was a case for mandatory minimum sentences.

“Ultimately judges have only got themselves to blame if they’re not going to use the full force of the law, particularly in cases where children are concerned,” he said.

“We’re going to see more of a movement towards mandatory sentencing - minimum sentences, rather than a maximum that’s never being used.”

Child, Youth and Family southern regional director Kelly Anderson said it was not involved with the child’s family at the time of the incident last Thursday, but has had “some previous involvement”.

Police notified CYF that the boy had been left in the street, and the child was placed with a caregiver.

Mr Anderson said the child was “doing well”.

“We are working closely with the family to make arrangements for the future care of this little boy.”

Two young children have been critically injured in a car fire in Gisborne.

Witnesses say the children, believed to be a two-year-old boy and his three-year-old sister, had been left alone in the vehicle about 4.30pm yesterday in a carpark outside Super Cheap Autos on Gladstone Rd. There was a small explosion and flash fire which produced clouds of black smoke, witnesses said.

Several bystanders rushed to the children’s aid.

Mutu Ngarimu, who runs a business alongside the carpark, said he saw smoke coming from the vehicle. He grabbed a fire extinguisher from under his desk and ran to help.

Two men working across the

road at the Firestone tyre store also saw the smoke and ran across the road.

They and Mr Ngarimu climbed into the back of the vehicle and pulled out the unconscious children.

Mr Mutu revived the boy while another man resuscitated the three-year-old girl.

The two youngsters suffered “serious burns”, Fire Service central communications shift manager Belinda Beets said.

“They were heroes, those guys,” said one witness.

St John paramedic Jackie Clapperton said staff from nearby businesses did a good job getting the children out, reviving them and treating their burns.

St John district operations manager Stephen Smith praised the work of the witnesses who rescued the children, and said they may

have made the difference in saving the children’s lives.

“From our point of view, removing the children from the fire and providing that initial first aid has contributed greatly to their care.”

“I just hope the kids pull through,” Mr Ngarimu told the Gisborne Herald.

Mr Smith said members of the public who pulled the children from the burning car performed first aid with the guidance over the phone by a St John paramedic.

Two ambulances with specialist paramedics arrived a short time later, and the children, one unconscious, were rushed to Gisborne Hospital.

The children were believed to be siblings, aged two and three, Mr Smith said.

They were in a critical condition with burns to about 40 per cent or more of their bodies.

Mighty big pay rise for directors

By Adam Bennett Mighty River Power directors are to get a 73 per cent pay rise, State Owned Enterprises Minister Tony Ryall said yesterday ahead of the release of offer documents for the company’s partial float today.

“Cabinet has agreed to adjust the level of fees Mighty River Power directors are paid to bring them more into line with comparable listed

companies”, Mr Ryall said in a statement.

“Fees need to be at a level that will attract and retain directors who have the skills to operate effectively in a listed company environment.”

When the company is listed, which is expected to happen next month, annual director fees will increase from $49,000 per year to $85,000 for each director, an increase of just over 73 per cent.

Chairwoman Joan Withers’ fees

would rise from $98,000 to $150,000.

There will also be a general pool of $85,000 for committee work to be distributed by the board, Mr Ryall said.

“We are advised that the current fees for MRP directors are well below those paid by comparable listed companies. We understand directors of similar sized companies listed on the NZX currently receive at least twice the current MRP fees, if not more,” Mr Ryall said.

Korea approves nuclear strike on US North Korea says it has approved a nuclear attack on the United States in its latest threat as US Defence Secretary Chuck Hagel warned Pyongyang to back down.

The White House and Pentagon would be notified that “reckless operations” using nuclear weapons had been approved, North Korea’s supreme military command said in a statement quoted

by South Korean news agency Yonhap.

“The moment of explosion is approaching fast,” the North Korean military said, warning that war could break out “today or tomorrow”.

Analysts have said North Korea is not technologically capable of carrying out a strike on the US mainland but could target US troops stationed in South Korea or Japan.

The North Korean announcement came shortly after the US said it will deploy a ballistic missile defence system on its Pacific island of Guam as part of Washington’s efforts to beef up its military presence in the region.

The land-based Terminal High Altitude Area Defense System (THAAD) “will strengthen defence capabilities for American citizens in the US territory of Guam and US forces stationed there”, the

Pentagon said.

Hagel called yesterday on Pyongyang to back down from its “dangerous rhetoric”.

“We take those threats seriously. We have to take those threats seriously,” Hagel said at the National Defence University in Washington.

The US had taken measured, reasonable steps in response to North Korea’s recent moves, he said, noting the danger of being wrong about the seriousness of the threats.

“It only takes being wrong once, and I don’t want to be the secretary of defence who was wrong once,” Hagel said.

North Korea yesterday blocked South Korean employees from entering an industrial complex operated jointly by the two countries, only allowing workers to leave, a Seoul official said.

In recent days, Pyongyang has threatened to close the Kaesong facility, which lies at the western end of the border inside its territory, amid heightened tension on the peninsula.

It notified Seoul that it would block entry to Kaesong for South Koreans, a spokesman for the South Korean Unification Ministry was quoted as saying by the Yonhap News Agency. Workers were waiting on the south side

of the checkpoint, a ministry spokeswoman said.

Workers would be allowed to leave normally, Pyongyang reportedly said.

The Kaesong complex, 10km north of the border, opened in 2004 as part of reconciliation agreements between the oncewarring neighbours. The park is one of isolated North Korea’s only sources of hard currency, earning an estimated $US80 million ($A76.90 million) a year.

South Korean Defence Minister Kim Kwan Jin told legislators from the conservative ruling Saenuri Party that using military force to free hundreds of workers

at the industrial area was a possibility if they were held hostage, Yonhap said.

Officials in Seoul said the likelihood of North Korea holding South Korean workers hostage was slim, according to the report.

North Korea last week cut the hotline with the South used to coordinate traffic movements in and out of Kaesong, after previously cutting another hotline between the countries’ Red Cross offices on March 11.

Tensions have been rising since Pyongyang’s third nuclear test in February led to a tightening of international sanctions against it.

Princess suspect in corruption case A Spanish judge has named King Juan Carlos’ daughter Princess Cristina as a suspect in a corruption case, dealing a spectacular blow to the prestige of the royal family.

It is first time a member of the Spanish royal family has been called to appear in a court of law on suspicion of wrongdoing.

The 47-year-old princess must testify as a suspect on April 27 at the court in Palma on the Mediterranean island of Mallorca, said a written ruling by the judge, Jose Castro.

“The royal household does not comment in any way on judicial decisions,” a spokesman for the royal family said yesterday.

The case, which was opened at the end of 2011, is centred on allegations of embezzlement and influence peddling against her husband, former Olympic handball player Inaki Urdangarin, and his former

business partner Diego Torres.

The pair are suspected of syphoning off money paid by regional governments to stage sports and tourism events to the non-profit Noos Institute, which Urdangarin chaired from 2004 to 2006.

The princess – the seventh in line to the Spanish throne – had seemed set to avoid being snared by the case.

But the judge said evidence, including emails provided to the court by her husband’s former business partner, raised doubts that she really was unaware of the business operations of Noos.

Closing the case without hearing the princess, who was a member of the Noos board, would “discredit the maxim that justice is equal for all”, he said.

The princess is accused of allowing the lustre of her royal connections to be used by the – AFP Noos institute.

Spain’s Princess Cristina waves from inside a car beside her husband Inaki Urdangarin, in Madrid, Spain.

Hundreds of orphans welcomed Madonna and her children with song and dance yesterday during their visit to the orphanage where the pop star adopted one of her Malawian children.

Madonna said she was happy to be back at the Home of Hope orphanage, where she adopted David Banda, in the western dis-

trict of Mchinji near the border with Zambia.

“I’m happy that David is back to see his brothers and sisters,” she said.

David, 8, was accompanied by his sister Mercy James, 8, and also adopted from Malawi, and their siblings, Rocco and Lourdes.

Madonna adopted David in

2006. Yesterday he was taken to his former crib, which has been preserved in his memory.

It wasn’t known if the family would also visit the Kondanani Children’s Village, where Madonna adopted Mercy in 2009 after a protracted court battle.

Madonna and her children will visit a pediatrics hospital

in Blantyre today and another orphanage tomorrow.

The singer arrived in Malawi to visit projects she has helped with. Madonna initially planned to build a $15 million 500-bed Raising Malawi Academy for girls, before changing plans to help fund several community schools.

53 killed in Taliban attack on Afghan courthouse Insurgents wearing Afghan army uniforms launched a suicide attack and stormed a courthouse yesterday in a failed bid to free Taliban inmates, killing at least 53 people, half of them shot in the basement. Nine attackers were killed.

The attack – one of the deadliest in the more than 11-year-old war – began when nine men wearing suicide vests drove into the capital of Farah province in western Afghanistan, evading checkpoints by using army vehicles, according to the provincial police chief. The

the government to further establish their presence,” Fabrizio Foschini, of the independent research group Afghan Analysts Network, said in a recent blog.

Militants have staged highprofile complex attacks across Afghanistan in a bid to show their strength and undermine confidence in the central government.

Yesterday’s assault was among the most brutal for civilians, raising fears of deteriorating security as international combat forces withdraw by the end of 2014 and hand over control to Afghan secu-

rity forces. The attack began when two assailants blew themselves up inside one of the vehicles while the others jumped out and ran toward the courthouse and prosecutor’s office, provincial police chief Agha Noor Kemtoz said.

Guards opened fire, killing one of the attackers, as the others engaged in a fierce gunbattle that left civil servants and government officials holed up in their offices.

Other civilians fled to the basement of the courthouse, where gunmen found them and killed 21 people, officials said.

Kemtoz said the attack aimed to free more than a dozen Taliban prisoners who were being transferred to the courthouse for trial, which had not yet started.

“Definitely the plan was to free the prisoners with this attack, but thank God, they did not succeed,” he said. “All the prisoners are accounted for.”

Deputy provincial governor Yonus Rasouli, however, said one of the inmates had escaped.

He said the suspects had been arrested in different places and faced a range of charges, includ-

You and another may not fully be aware of each other’s interests, concerns or values. Latent creative or even procreative tendencies may be alive and kicking.

You could be restless and changeable, with a desire to be playful and connect.

LEO (Jul 24th - Aug 23rd) An exciting trend may be amplified.

It’s time to wake up and say “Yes!” to new adventures and fresh ideas. The cosmos is encouraging you to explore interesting dimensions in thought and action.

Sometimes thinking too much can put a damper on a bold and exciting plan. Allow spontaneous inspiration to take you on a voyage of discovery.

Fire has engulfed an unoccupied 40-storey apartment building under construction in Chechnya, a once war-torn republic in southern Russia.

One of the apartments in a neighbouring 27-storey building belongs to French actor Gerard Depardieu, who was presented with the keys when he visited Grozny in February.

AQUARIUS (Jan 21st - Feb 19th) An over-zealous boss or emotional confrontations with an authority figure may need careful handling.

Flooding kills 52 in Argentina At least 52 people drowned in their homes and cars, were electrocuted or died in other accidents as flooding from days of torrential rains swamped Argentina’s low-lying capital and province of Buenos Aires.

At least 46 died yesterday in and around the city of La Plata, Governor Daniel Scioli said. Six deaths were reported a day earlier in the nation’s capital.

Many people climbed on to their roofs in the pouring rain after storm sewers backed up.

Water surged up through drains in their kitchen and bathroom floors and then poured in over their windowsills.

“It started to rain really hard in the evening, and began to flood,” said Augustina Garcia Orsi, a 25-year-old student. “I panicked. In two seconds, I was up to my knees in water. It came up through the drains – I couldn’t do anything.”

The rains also flooded the country’s largest refinery, causing a fire that took hours to put out. The La Plata refinery suspended operations as a result, and Argentina’s YPF oil company said an emergency team was evaluating how to get it restarted.

“Such intense rain in so little time has left many people trapped in their cars, in the streets, in some cases electrocuted. We are giving priority to rescuing people who have been stuck in trees or on the roofs of their homes,” Scioli said.

But many complained that they had to rescue themselves and their neighbours as cars flooded to their rooftops and homes filled with up to 2m of water.

“We lost family heirlooms, appliances, clothing,” said Natalia Lescano, who escaped

$5m bounty offered for Kony The Obama administration yesterday offered up to $5 million in rewards for information leading to the capture of Lord’s Resistance Army chief Joseph Kony, two of his top aides and a Rwandan rebel leader suspected of crimes against humanity.

The bounties are being offered by the State Department under a provision in the War Crimes Rewards Programme authored by

Secretary of State John Kerry when he was a senator and signed into law by President Barack Obama in January.

That provision expanded the scope of the program that had previously allowed for rewards to be offered for war crimes suspects wanted only by international criminal tribunals for Rwanda and the former Yugoslavia.

A fatal gang rape in New Delhi didn’t deter Germans Carolina De Paolo and Canan Wahner from travelling to India for a six-week tour.

The attack was awful, but there is crime everywhere, they figured, and they’d take precautions.

Then a man sidled up to Wahner on a train to Goa and ran his hand up her leg a few weeks into the trip. On another train, a different man grabbed De Paolo’s breasts from behind.

“I wanted to scream and do something, but he ran away,” De Paolo said. She never reported the crime, deciding there would be no point. The two women, both 22, say there were times they didn’t feel safe, but they insist they still would come to India again.

That separates them from many tourists, who are choosing not to come at all.

Violence against women, and the huge publicity generated by recent attacks here, is threatening India’s $17.7 billion tourism industry.

A new study shows tourism has plunged, especially among women, since a 23-year-old Indian student was raped on a New Delhi bus and later died from her injuries – a case that garnered worldwide publicity. The government denies any fall off in tourism.

Proposed changes to the Resource Management Act are a timid, missed opportunity and are “unlikely to contribute to the Prime Minister’s goal of making New Zealand ‘a magnet for investment’,” says BusinessNZ. The peak business lobby group says a discussion paper issued on February 28

by Environment Minister Amy Adams fails to consider the erosion of private property rights that the RMA has encouraged and does too little to ensure the benefits of economic development are properly weighed against environmental costs.

As proposed, the reforms “will result in failure to fully unlock the potential of New Zealand’s productive capacity in a way that balances the various interests and delivers an overall increase in economic activity, while protecting the environment,” says the submission, authored by BusinessNZ’s energy, environment and infrastructure manager, John Carnegie.

The RMA would continue to act as a “hand-brake” on economic development “until such time as it is amended to better reflect the ability to achieve both economic growth and environmental protection”.

BusinessNZ’s views are strongly at odds with environmental lobbyists who fear some of the Amy proposed reforms will turn the RMA into an economic development act rather than law requiring development to occur in an environmentally sustainable way.

Their criticism focuses on proposed changes to Sections 6 and 7, which interpret the untouched Section 5, where the act’s focus on “sustainable development” is enshrined.

BusinessNZ’s objection is that Section 5 should have been opened up but was taken off the agenda by the government, preventing full-scale RMA reform.

“The practical effect of this is to entrench the absence of any clear boundary between the public and private interest in the sustainable management of the environment.”

With central government consistently failing to give national direction, the status quo of courts and local authorities able “to trammel private property rights in order to achieve often opaque or highly dubious public goals”.

However, both sides of the argument are aligned in opposing limited rights of appeal on resource consents, which Adams is championing as creating greater business certainty, and what BusinessNZ says could lead to “the risk of getting bad decisions sooner”.

The business lobby says best practice in members of the rich countries club, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, is to ensure “the role of merit appeal rights is firmly understood and is promoted strongly”.

Greater use of collaborative decision-making processes heightened the business community’s concerns that “inferior decisions generate uncertainty”.

BusinessNZ also fears that efforts to streamline resource consent processes will create “yet another new consenting process, or worse still, a new entity”. The Environmental Protection Authority should be to fast-track nationally important local resource consent processes, rather than a proposed new body.

It is similarly scathing about the proposed 10-day consent process, which is described as “a somewhat timid attempt”, despite being “the closest the package gets to acknowledging that the boundaries or scope of the act have become so stretched”.

BusinessNZ is also deeply critical of the 22-day period given for submissions on what it says are Adams the biggest changes to the law since it was introduced in 1991, saying the process showed “an almost complete disregard for the views of submitters”.

The criticisms are one of the few areas where the business lobby agrees with environmental groups, who have become increasingly alarmed at the implications of the reforms.

The Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment, an independent officer of Parliament, Jan Wright, said in her submission the proposed RMA reforms risked turning the law into an economic development act rather than law to ensure sustainable development.

Environment Minister Amy Adams launched the discussion document outlining the changes on February 28, and 10 days later also issued a similarly momentous discussion paper on freshwater reforms, also with a short deadline.

New Financial Minister Harris Georgiades (centre) speaks from the podium as Cyprus President Nicos Anastasiades (left) listens during the oath of office ceremony at the Presidential Palace in the Cypriot capital Nicosia yesterday.

IMF agrees to Cypriot bail-out The International Monetary Fund said yesterday it would contribute 1 billion euros to an overall financial rescue package of 10 billion euros ($12.8 billion) for Cyprus.

The IMF’s managing director Christine Lagarde said the contribution would be made via a three-year loan that’s expected to be cleared by the fund’s executive board in early May. Earlier this week, the final terms of the Cyprus bail-out were agreed between the small Mediterranean island nation and the European Union and the IMF, following a protracted crisis that saw the country’s banking sector shut down for the best part of two weeks.

Lagarde and Olli Rehn, the top monetary affairs official at the European Commission, the EU’s executive arm, said “significant challenges lie ahead for Cyprus” as the government sets in motion a multi-year programme of reforms

to rebuild its banking sector and austerity.

Apart from spending cuts and tax increases worth around 5 per cent of Cyprus’ annual gross domestic product that have already been put in place, Lagarde said the country will need to do more.

She said Cyprus will have to raise another 2 per cent through measures such as a corporate tax rate hike from 10 to 12.5 per cent, and the doubling of the interest rate tax to 30 per cent.

The IMF chief said an additional 4.5 per cent will be needed over the medium term if the country is to achieve a budget surplus worth 4 per cent of its annual GDP by the target date of 2018. That surplus is needed to get the country’s debt “on a firmly downward path”.

“This is a challenging programme that will require great efforts from the Cypriot population,” Lagarde said.

“We believe that it provides a durable and fully financed solu-

tion to the underlying problems facing Cyprus and provides a sustainable path toward a recovery.”

EU Commission spokesman Olivier Bailly said the bail-out will need parliamentary approval from several of Cyprus’ euro partners by the end of this month so that the first batch of rescue money can reach Cyprus in May. “We think this is a good agreement in the regard that it addresses the three main problems of the Cypriot economy,” said Bailly.

To secure the bail-out, Cyprus had to agree that bondholders, investors and savers in the country’s two biggest banks – Bank of Cyprus and Laiki – take a hit.

Laiki, the country’s secondlargest lender, will be broken up with depositors with more than 100,000 euros ($128,000) taking major losses. Savers with more than 100,000 euros at the Bank of Cyprus could face losses of up to 60 per cent as part of the rescue deal.

• Smeltz set for Victory Perth Glory striker Shane Smeltz has declared himself available for tonight’s A-League elimination final against Melbourne Victory, but he’s still in the dark as to whether he’ll get a starting role. Smeltz hasn’t played since requiring 15 stitches for a nasty gash to the forehead while playing for New Zealand a fortnight ago. The 31-year-old had the stitches out earlier this week, and travelled as part of Glory’s 16-man squad to Melbourne on Friday. But Dean Heffernan’s best-on-ground performance in last week’s 1-1 draw against Adelaide United means Smeltz is no certainty to slot straight back into the starting line-up.

It would be a tough call to leave out Smeltz, who thrives on the big stage and is the A-League’s highest goalscorer with 73 goals in 119 games.

International flavour to new-look team

By Jonathan Leask The football seasons kicks off tomorrow with the senior grades getting down to business with the local junior players looking to find their feet.

The local Mid Canterbury junior competitions have their first kicks tomorrow, while teams that will be travelling in Christchurch competition get into the season proper.

The Mid Canterbury men’s division one side face the Cashmere Technical Turtles team in Christchurch, with Mid Canterbury coach Peter Roberts taking a new

look team after a fresh start.

A young side struggled through the last season and had just two wins and two draws from their 14 league matches, with Roberts conceding they “lacked three or four more experienced players” to lead the team.

The 2013 team has a lot of new faces but has been bolstered with some experience.

“We have lost a few of the younger guys off to university, and had a few retire to play Masters so have a few new faces, but they are older players who bring a bit of experience.”

One of those is former golden boot winner Greg Feutz who is looking to

become a regular again after only appearing in a handful of games last year, while the other new recruits add to the international flavour of the side.

“We have a Chilean, an Irishman and another Brazilian coming in and they have all looked pretty handy so far.”

With the team now having more experience within the ranks Roberts also said that the team would continue to promote the youth players.

“We have our youth team playing in division one of the Christchurch under 18 competition, and we will be bringing some of those players up each week to fill the gaps and

to continue to build depth.”

Mid Canterbury will also field a women’s team, masters and a division four men’s side, while Methven International are in division five, as well as the age group teams from 18s down to 10s.

The travelling teams have been training and some have even had pre-season matches, but the local junior competition has their first proper kick of the season.

The junior grades all come together for the first time at the Ashburton Domain for warm up games to get geared up for the season, which officially starts on May 4 after the school holidays.

Hampstead after a double Taylor-gate fallout continues

By Jonathan Leask After opening their season with a win at home Hampstead face their next challenge, winning away from home in the Mid-South Canterbury hockey competition tomorrow.

Hampstead made the perfect start, already matching their win tally from when the team moniker was last in the competition in 2011, and also matching Collegians’ effort last year.

They will look to extend the positive start when they head south to take on Pleasant Point, who opened their season going down to Craighead in a high scoring match 6-5, in Timaru.

Pleasant Point had led 5-3 but ran out of puff in the final 10 minutes, conceding three rapid goals to go down.

Hampstead on the other hand got better as the game wore on as the new-look side began to gel and dominated Timaru Girls’, unlucky not to record a bigger score line than 3-0.

The other returnee to top flight hockey, Tinwald, find themselves at the top of men’s competition after a default by Excelsior but will go in as underdogs against the two time defending champions Wakanui Black.

While Tinwald were left to have a friendly game amongst themselves, Black got their campaign for a

three-peat off to a winning start beating a plucky Timaru Boys’ side 2-1.

The young and fit schoolboys were giving Black the run-around, but the defending champions used all their experience, and a bit of luck, to come out with the win, but won’t be taking Tinwald lightly.

Last year’s runners-up Wakanui Blue have a second away game this time facing Tainui in Timaru.

Wakanui Blue produced a shaky start with Sam Moore saying his side was lucky to come away with the 1-1 draw with Cambridge.

“But if that was the effort we can produce with limited preparation imagine what we can do with some practice and a bit of game time”.

At least two prominent New Zealand cricket identities have consulted lawyers after being named in revelations pertaining to the change in captaincy over the past 24 hours.

A group of former New Zealand cricketers and coaches, understood to be co-ordinated by John Parker, have compiled a lengthy document on the Ross Taylor captaincy saga as the fallout continues after his dumping as captain in December.

The report details what they believe led to Taylor’s demotion and

the events that followed and has been aired on The Radio Network ntly outlined on a Facebook page.

Radio Sport reports former test captain Parker and a group of explayers met New Zealand Cricket last week and identified an alleged conflict of interest over Hesson’s original appointment as coach.

In a release by New Zealand Cricket yesterday the NZC stated it was disappointed and saddened by the “recent attack made Parker and some unnamed individuals”.

According to NZC the Parker document “consists of hearsay, speculation and rumour and appears to concentrate almost entirely on attempting to re-litigate the issues surrounding the replacement of Ross Taylor as Black Caps captain”.

“The allegations raised by John Parker and the anonymous group of critics are divisive, untrue and reflect poorly on them rather than the players they have wrongly attacked,” NZC chief executive David White says in the statement. - HOL

Hills the great leveller

By Jonathan Leask The Benchmark Cycling Series heads to sunny Nelson for the second round with hills set to be the big factor on Sunday.

The locally based Team Calder Stewart has named seven riders to start the 132km race and four riders in the masters, while Lauren Ellis will line up in the Benchmark women’s team.

“It is nice course but is a hilly course which will be the big a big factor this weekend,” team manager Bruce McClelland said.

“I think it will suit Tim Rush and Andy van der Hayden quite nicely.

“If the team can ride well and put them in a good position we could pick up some points.”

Rush starred on his debut for the team coming in with the chasing bunch to be 13th.

Jason Christie was also in the bunch in 11th but he has returned to race in Europe.

Nathan Tew finished five minutes back in race one, while Brendan Whalley failed to finish and will have a big challenge ahead to complete the course in Nelson.

“Brendan is just a youngster and is in the team to get some experience.

“He covered 110km in the first race which was a good effort and I

rivals but give him the most race wins in the history of the series.

The Holden racer has drawn level with Mark Skaife’s winning record and needs just one more to set a new mark. Lowndes admitted he had been thinking about the record since creeping closer last season.

Scott Prince has spent the week preparing for the hammering his former club Gold Coast is plotting for his NRL return to Skilled Park with Brisbane tonight. Despite assurances from former team-mates, including Queensland Origin forward Ashley Harrison, that the players harbour no hard feeling towards their ex-captain, Prince is bracing for a torrid night and has put in extra work on his tackling. Gold Coast coach John Cartwright has assembled a bigman army to trample playmaker Prince on the right side where he defends. Giant forward Dave Taylor and enforcer Greg Bird will attack Prince’s edge in a bid to work him over but the likes of 110kg-plus Ryan James and Jamal Idris could also head his - AAP way at some stage.

• ‘Grow up and swim’ Australia’s male swimmers must focus on their sport and not being “celebrity show ponies”.

That’s the view of former champion Kieren Perkins in the wake of the damning Bluestone Review into Australia’s Olympic swimming team. The two-time Olympic gold medallist believes swimming hasn’t been irrecoverably damaged by the revelations of athletes abusing prescription drugs, alcohol and curfews during last year’s Games in London. But the review’s findings should be the catalyst for a greater emphasis on swimming performance above anything else.

• Real too powerful Real Madrid all but secured their place in the semi-finals of the Champions League yesterday with a 3-0 defeat of Galatasaray in their quarter-final first leg, while Malaga and Borussia Dortmund played out a goalless draw. Jose Mourinho’s side were just too strong for the Turkish league leaders, opening the scoring through Cristiano Ronaldo in the ninth minute and never looking back on a wet night at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Ronaldo neatly chipped visiting goalkeeper Fernando Muslera for his ninth European goal of the season, before Karim Benzema justified Mourinho’s decision to select him in the starting lineup by sweeping home a cross from Michael Essien - a surprise starter at right-back - to double Real’s lead just before the half- AFP hour mark.

However, the Benchmark girls’ could be a bit tender with the team competing in the Grape Ride the day before.

With the season’s first major just around the corner, Rory McIlroy figured that adding the Texas Open to his schedule would be the best way to help him polish his game. “I feel like all the components of my game are there,” McIlroy said. “It is just a matter of putting it all together.” McIlroy heads a strong international field in the Texas Open which will try to snap an American win streak on the PGA Tour which dates back to October 2012. This marks the first time that the Texas Open will serve as the final Masters tune-up with the winner getting a free pass into Augusta. - AFP

Tough break for Roulston’s team

By Jonathan Leask Ashburton cyclist Hayden Roulston completed the 204km Scheldeprijs in Belgium yesterday, but his team suffered a major setback ahead of the prestigious Paris-Roubaix on Sunday.

Coming off his Tour of Flanders win earlier in the week Radioshack Leopard’s leading rider Fabian Cancellara hit the deck 50km into the race, putting a dent in the team’s aspirations for the day and the upcoming classic.

Cancellara, the favourite to take

out Paris-Roubaix, was able to continue but failed to finish the race as a precaution.

“It was a typical crash,” team manager Luca Guercilena said.

“Just a small touch of the wheels and he went down.

“We’re quite confident that everything will be fine. It’s not ideal, but it’s fine.”

After setting up Cancellara for the win in Flanders, Roulston continued to push his case towards Tour de France selection with another solid performance, despite the team having to change tack and save themselves for Sunday.

Rather than attempting to set Cancellara up at the finish, Roulston rode in 46 seconds behind what was a hectic finish to the race.

A group sprint of 71 riders formed up in the final kilometres and despite efforts from the teams to keep it organised, it was anything but.

Defending champion German Marcel Kittel (Argos-Shimano) finally emerged from the centre of the course to take the victory, only half a wheel ahead of 2011 winner Mark Cavendish (Omega PharmaQuickStep), who was looking for his fourth win.

Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez has avoided jail but been sentenced to perform 250 hours of community service after pleading guilty to two motoring offences. The Argentina forward was also handed a six-month driving ban and ordered to pay STG1145 ($A1666) in fines and court costs at Macclesfield Magistrates’ Court, near Manchester in northwest England. He must do his community service within the next 12 months and his driving ban starts immediately. - AFP

Crusaders ring the changes

Going head to head

By Jonathan Leask

Mid Canterbury’s Tim Perry has been handed his second Super Rugby start, and will face another tough task up front at Eden Park in Auckland tonight.

Perry’s first start was against the vaunted Bulls forward pack, and his second will be against the Highlanders All Blackfilled front row and fellow Mid Canterbury propping product Chris King.

Former Blues prop Tony Woodcock has been ruled out with a hamstring strain, but Andrew Hore is joined by onetest All Black Jamie Mackintosh and super rugby centurion King.

Come scrum time Perry will lock horns with King, who in playing his 102nd super rugby game will have 100 more games on his CV than his opposite.

However Perry impressed coach Sir John Kirwan with his strong scrummaging on debut in an 80 minute effort against the rampaging Bulls and takes over for Tom McCartney, who moved from hooker to cover the loosehead role left vacant by Woodcock’s departure.

Perry is one of only two changes to the Blues line-up, with former Chiefs midfielder Jackson Willison replacing Francis Saili at second fiveeighths to start his first match for the franchise against the Blues former mid fielder Ma’a Nonu.

“We’ve obviously got Keven coming back so Quentin is a bit unlucky.

“We think Tim played really well against the Bulls so we want to have another look at him, and Jacko just adds bit more balance to

the midfield,” Kirwan said.

The Blues also receive a big boost with former captain and All Black hooker Keven Mealamu starting his season after a sabbatical on the bench.

The Highlanders have also made two changes as the search for their first win going the opening five games without a victory.

Mackintosh starts in place of Woodcock, while former Crusader and nine-test All Black Mose Tuialui’i will start at number eight after joining the franchise earlier this week.

Tuialui’i has just finished his fifth season in Japanese rugby with Yamaha and was called into cover the long term loss Nasi Manu, and pushes Elliott Dixon to the bench.

Despite boasting a team brimming with All Blacks and x-factor, the Highlanders have been unable to record a win in five matches this season and sit at the bottom of the ladder.

However, Kirwan knows it is only a matter of time before they click into gear.

“They can’t win a trick and I don’t want them to win one on Friday either so that’s the nature of this tournament.

“Look at us, we’ve lost three in a row so we’re under the pump as well.

“It’s going to be a huge game.”

Left: Tim Perry will be half of an all-Mid Canterbury clash in the front row when the Blues meet the Highlanders tonight.

Andy Ellis returns to the starting line-up

Already without some of their big names, the Crusaders have been hit with more injury worries with hooker Corey Flynn incurring an eye injury which has seen Codie Taylor fly out to South Africa to take a place on the bench for tomorrow morning’s match against the Sharks.

Flynn was originally named in the side to face the Sharks but injured his eye in training overnight, meaning Ben Funnell moves into the starting XV. The Crusaders are already without Kieran Read, Dan Carter, Richie McCaw and Jonny McNicholl, although Israel Dagg returns to the bench after missing the gritty 19-14 win over the Stormers and Owen Franks has also recovered from a knock picked up in that match.

Coach Todd Blackadder has made

three changes to his starting side, with former All Black Andy Ellis returning at halfback.

In other changes Zac Guildford moves to the left wing to replace McNicholl, who fractured his fibula in last weekend’s game against the Stormers, and Adam Whitelock takes his place on the right wing.

The Sharks have won four out of five games this season and will be rested after the bye last week. The two teams last met in 2011 in the playoffs when the Crusaders won 36-8, securing a place in the semi-finals.

Crusaders team to play the Sharks Kings Park, Durban, on Saturday (6.10am NZT): Tom Marshall, Adam Whitelock, Robbie Fruean, Ryan Crotty, Zac Guildford, Tyler Bleyendaal, Andy Ellis, Luke Whitelock, Matt Todd, George Whitelock (c), Samuel Whitelock, Luke Romano, Owen Franks, Ben Funnell, Wyatt Crockett.

Reserves: Codie Taylor, Joe Moody, Dominic Bird, Jordan Taufua, Willi Heinz, Telusa Veainu, Israel Dagg. - APNZ

Vito in doubt Dane Coles has been ruled out with a thumb injury.

Jeremy Thrush was still in a moon boot at training and won’t play due to an ankle injury, which gives Mark Reddish the opportunity to start in the second row.

The most intriguing name on the team sheet for the round eight clash is that of openside flanker Ardie Savea, who will make his long-awaited Hurricanes debut.

The 19-year-old’s progress was stunted slightly this year after he copped a four-week ban for a dangerous tackle in the final pre-season game against the Chiefs in Mangatainoka, but after three hit-outs for the development side his time has come.

If Vito was to miss this weekend’s game, a loose trio of Savea, Levave and Brad Shields would scream of inexperience, but Hammett said it was an interesting group.

“Quite an exciting one really.

“I think Faifili and Ardie and Brad, who’s obviously in very good form, [are] quite devastating in terms of their ability on

Hurricanes No 8 Victor Vito remains in doubt for Saturday’s home outing against the Waratahs due to a calf complaint.

Vito didn’t take part in training yesterday at Rugby League Park in Newtown and if he was to be ruled out for this weekend’s game, Faifili Levave will start in his place at the back of the scrum with Jack Lam moving on to the bench.

Back-up hooker Ash Dixon (shoulder) and reserve prop Jeffery Toomaga-Allen (sternum) were both bracketed on the bench for Saturday’s game but came through training unscathed.

Hurricanes coach Mark Hammett said Vito would be given more time to prove his fitness.

“He’s progressed fairly well but we’ll wait till tomorrow and if he’s not right we certainly won’t be risking him,” Hammett said.

Motu Matu’u will start in the No 2 jersey this weekend as

attack and defence.”

Hawkes Bay players Karl Lowe and Mike Coman have been given the week off from team duties following the death of Hannah Eaton, wife of former Hurricanes halfback Chris Eaton, who died in a road accident last Saturday.

Meanwhile, Wallabies prop Sekope Kepu makes a return to the NSW starting line-up for this weekend’s game and will pack down alongside Benn Robinson and hooker John Ulugia in the front row.

Coach Michael Cheika has left the rest of the starting side unchanged following Sunday’s 23-19 victory over the Western Force, although Wycliff Palu has joined the bench after recovering from an ankle injury.

Hurricanes: Andre Taylor, Alapati Leiua, Conrad Smith, Tim Bateman, Julian Savea, Beauden Barrett, TJ Perenara, Victor Vito/Faifili Levave, Ardie Savea, Brad Shields, Jason Eaton, Mark Reddish, Ben May, Motu Matu’u, Ben Franks.

College athletes chase SI glory

From the sideline

Test yourself with the Guardian’s weekday quiz

Mid Canterbury has 23 athletes heading to Invercargill for the South Island Secondary Schools’ Championships this weekend.

Mount Hutt College is sending 12 and Ashburton College 11 athletes to vie for South Island titles as well as performances that will qualify them for the nationals in Hamilton in December.

It will be a big weekend for four Ashburton College athletes who are competing in three events.

It’s all throwing all weekend for Alifeleti Pelesikoti competing in the under 16 boys’ discus, javelin and shot put while it will be all jumping for Emma Waite in the senior girls’, contesting the high jump, long jump and triple jump.

Matthew Bowers is in the under15 boys’ triple jump, 100m and 200m sprints while Alin Onicas has the under 14 boys’ discus, 100m and 200m.

Mikhayla Stroganov is a strong chance at a South Island title in the under 15 girls’ 400m and 800m after winning both at the Aoraki championships, and will look to repeat the double.

The same stands for Aoraki title holders in the discus, and Ashburton College record holders, Becca Harper-Grey in the under 14s and Greer Hooper in the under 16s.

In the under 16s girls’ Annie McDonald will run the 1500m and throw the javelin while in the boys’ Edze Bierema runs the 400m and 800m. Lisala Sweet will throw the javelin in the senior girls’ and Sala Bueta in the under 14 girls’ shot put.

Mt Hutt’s best hope may lie in the under 14s with Aimee Elliott lining up in the 1500m and 3000m.

At the Aoraki Championships Elliott set a new meet record in the 3000m clocking 11 minutes 50.66 seconds to win by almost a minute and was also quick in the 1500m to win by six seconds.

Also in the under 14 Mt Hutt record holder Dallas McLeod outgunned the field in the boys’ discus with his throw of 38.88m having him six metres clear of second, but was second in the shot put and is a chance of a South Island title. Older brother Cameron will also contest the shot put and discus in the under 16s.

Declan O’Neill won the 400m and 800m in Timaru and will contest both this weekend.

Henry Dewhirst is in the under 19 triple jump, William Todhunter is in the under 16 high jump and Harry Fielding in the under 14 javelin.

Assina Dalglish has a busy weekend competing in the 15 girls’ 1500m, 300m and high jump while Dakota Johansen will throw in the shot put and Juliet Lewis will run in the 800m.

Methven face defending champs first-up Methven have the hardest introduction to the Combined Country Cup rugby competition tomorrow.

Last year’s beaten semi-finalist come off the bye to face the defending champions Southbridge, who will be full of confidence after battering Burnham 50-6 on Tuesday night.

With it being the opening round it is hard to gauge the meaning behind the thrashing, whether it was a weak Burnham side or simply a sizzling

Elsewhere in section one, Rakaia will be looking to build momentum against Saracens after a five try bonus point win to kick-off their campaign.

Rakaia have had over a week to recover from their opening hitout against Dunsandel-Irwell while Saracens have the short turn around after going down to Oxford 15-23 on Wednesday.

Across in section two, Mid Canterbury’s other round one winner both face testing away matches.

After a winning start to the competition Celtic have the hard task

travelling to face last year’s runnersup and two time winners Lincoln.

After a brave 12-10 win over Southern with a depleted line-up Hampstead will be hoping to take their full roster to Darfield.

Southern stumbled out of the blocks this season in the shock loss to an under-manned Hampstead but will be looking to mark their first home game with a win against Waihora.

Right: Mitch Sim will again be on the openside when Methven opens their account against Southbridge tomorrow.

Today’s answers: Mystery person: Long-time captain of the England cricket team, Charlotte Edwards has played over 100 ODIs, in one season she smashed 12 centuries, has scored 173 in a World Cup match, and at the time was the youngest player to play for England.

Quote: Emile Zatopek Trivia question: Bob McDonald

Southbridge, but Methven will find out one way or the other. However, Methven have been spared the task of shutting down All Black pivot Dan Carter, who remained behind from the Crusaders tour to South Africa for the birth of his son and expressed interest to don the blue and white hoops at least once this season, but is lining up a home game to do so.

Methven had Easter weekend off before hosting Southbridge, and will go in lighter on experience than when the two sides drew 13-all draw last year.
