well guys, looks like they may be reconsidering it accoring to the press conference, still keep pressure on your MP

at least theyre considering -thats a start.Was watching press conference today -clear impression robertson was somewhat taken aback by suggestion of hunting being banned outright under level 3.as much as I detest the guy and what he stands for ,in this case I ll admit he was gracious enough to explain rather than typical fudge it or brush it aside thank you (just this once.)

In a sensible world you would allow hunting to happen provided you were again keeping to your bubble group and maintaining safe social distancing. 45min drive from home and day trips only to areas you know and hunt regularly.

This will also allow those that need to hut to go and do so to fill the freezer. It'll also allow those that can hunt to go and do so, and us that cannot meet these will need to wait a couple more weeks. This will also mean that when we go into level 2 not every man and his dog are racing for the hills, which could have a higher risk of 'fatality' / hunting accidents. The guys that already have had a chance in the hills have safety been up there.

Mr Seymour has been onto it and that ruling is going to change, 'apparently' was put on by mistake. Insert Tui ad here

Covid 19 website has reversed the banning of hunting. Now states guidelines are being developed. NZDA is suppose to be helping with the guidelines.

FAQs
How far can I drive to do a recreation activity?

You should drive as short a distance as you can, and still do the activity. You must stay local.

Boating, yachting and any team sports or training are not allowed. We are developing guidance for hunting.

The hunter who owns the farm and lives on the farm, with a wife or a daughter or a son don’t require a permit under owner occupier status.

True, but it still requires fish and game to have a season. And how many of the fish and game council members are land owners?

Just hoping the landowners who have land bordering public water don’t shoot it up early and ruin it for the rest of us peasants who only have public land options.

...only public land , fuck man that public land is the biggest farm in the country with plenty of deer charging around just get off your ass and walk a bit further than the boundary fence .

STOP PRESS.

That didn't take long.
Following David supporting us, the Show Pony's stable boy, Grant was reported on the 0900 Sunday Radio News as saying "they had made a mistake" about banning hunting and were going to look at it again............

David Seymour is on our side.
Alert Level 3 ban on 200,000 hunters illogical.

“The Government’s decision to ban an estimated 200,000 Kiwis from hunting at Alert Level 3 is illogical and I have written to Jacinda Ardern and Winston Peters to ask them to reconsider this issue”, says ACT Leader David Seymour."
