Budget 2022, Zoom hui

Last night I had the privilege to attend a Zoom hui hosted by Minister of Finance Hon Grant Robertson, and Hon Priyanca Radhakrishnan, Minister for Diversity, Inclusion and Ethnic Communities, in which they presented and discussed the Government’s Budget 2022 – ‘Securing our Future’. The event was attended by 81 ethnic community leaders and ethnic media. For privacy reasons just a cheesy selfie…

Dawn Raids

Unanticipated inspections by a competition enforcement agency or a criminal investigation agency, also known as dawn raids, can seriously disrupt the functioning of any business. There is also the possibility that this may signal the beginning of lengthy legal proceedings. These may trigger harsh fines, damages claims, and in some jurisdictions, criminal prosecution and imprisonment, as well as the disqualification of directors and a suspension of their powers. There is a high risk associated with taking such actions, including damage to a business's reputation, financial losses, and governmental prosecutions. Following that, there is an increased risk of private claims that can threaten the continuation of the business and the rights of its employees.

There is a possibility of your business being the target of a dawn raid. This may result in you being forced to act immediately to protect your interests under extreme pressure. To be able to arrive at a quick strategic judgment about applying for leniency, however, it is vital that you become familiar with the full extent of the powers and procedures of the relevant authority. By doing so, you will be able to make a more accurate judgment about your case.

Competition authorities have limited powers to conduct dawn raids. Companies and individuals who are subject to dawn raids have certain rights, including the right to privacy, the right not to self-incriminate, and the right to privilege. It is possible to conduct searches and seizures on a wider scale than authorized if these rights are not exercised.

It is imperative to train staff regarding their rights and limits during dawn raids. If they fail to comply with the law, they will be fined for obstruction.

History of Dawn Raid

During the 1970s, Auckland began to experience dawn raids. There is no doubt that the attacks represented a low point in the relationship between the Pacific community and the government. As a matter of fact, I remember back then when the New Zealand Police were instructed by the government to barge into people's homes or stop them on the street and ask for a permit, visa, and passport information - anything that could prove a person's right to enter the country. In the 1970s and 1980s, the blunt instrument was almost exclusively used to apply to Pacific Islanders. This is quite a surprising fact when you consider that most of the overseas from Europe and North America were from those two countries during that time.

What can you do?

In order to ensure that the company's internal response strategy is followed, reception staff should be trained accordingly. At the reception, it may be useful to have a booklet detailing the initial steps.

The inspection team was notified, and a senior member of the internal response team (IRT) was requested and took a copy of the documents and IDs of the members of the inspection team.

Establish a list of all members of the inspection team. Arrange name badges for visitors to the premises clearly indicating that they are members of the inspection team.

As soon as a senior member of staff arrives, it should be communicated to the inspectors that they will be accompanied by a senior member of staff. They should be asked to wait, preferably in an empty meeting room or another appropriate place, while these preliminary administrative tasks are administered.

If there are minimal delays involved, most inspectors will be willing to agree. They will usually be willing to allow you to proceed before they are given an opportunity to complete their work. However, you should keep in mind that they are not legally bound to wait and you should not harass them if they insist on proceeding immediately.

All conversations with the inspection team should be kept to matters of pure administration at that stage. This conversation should not concern the business or the focus of the investigation.

Dawn Raid

middle grade historical about a 13yo Samoan girl living in Porirua in 1976, as she learns about the hīkoi (Māori land march) the year before, the dawn raids happening mostly further north, and about civil rights around the world

as well as normal kid stuff like doing the milk run to save up and buy some cool shoes, and dealing with her chaotic younger brothers

she gets more passionate about learning & speaking up about these things, especially when her own family is dawn raided when they’re visiting relatives in Auckland, and her brother is arrested while protesting with the Polynesian Panthers

told in diary entries

[anaugust]

She is beauty, she is grace, she led Utaru during the Red Raids

(And she deserves to be a member of the Chorus and I'm ready to fight Fane myself)

New art of an NPC my players saw in their dnd game today! Ludeva Jageer.

A noble child who has been subject to cruel blood experiments, and in exchange for a long life, was granted tremendous talent for battle. she’s basically just the most minmaxed hexblade warlock/sorcerer I could possibly conceive and also just. a level 20 character. she has -2 con mod tho because of the strain on her body so that’s fun

Just finished the base game for HZD and now I’m debating against starting up the Frozen Wilds DLC, doing a new game + on a harder difficulty to get an achievement on an achievement mop up playthrough, or swapping out games to avoid completion fatigue.

I did sort of leave my current run of Days Gone in the middle of the plot, plus I left Arthur and Co. just chilling out in Valentine in RDR2.
