Community safety?

Is it? I haven't read anywhere thats the case. Its a multi year contract, that rules out that its just for the software provision.

The $208 million funded in Budget 2022 is for the first four years of an 11 years funding model for Te Tari Pūreke and will be used to establish the regulator, develop and manage the firearms registry, and resource the regulator to establish new teams and functions to better assist us working with the firearms community.

Not even close to a Billion..

no 208 million over 4 years isnt even close unless it runs for a further 16 years ...its a fifth of a million so if they keep the circus going for 20 years..longer than others have..it WILL have chewed up a billion taxpayers dollars....if we round figures and say population of 6 million and guestimate that 2 in 6 are working (that would be extremely on generous side I would think) that gives 2 million taxpayers so thats near enough to $100 per taxpayer per year.

Thats not just the cost of the register, thats the total funding for the Firearms Safety Authority.$52 m a year.

There are approx 3.85M taxpayers in NZ, so $50M/3.85M = $13.50 per taxpayer per year.

so just a drop in the bucket...no worries to pay for it so no need for user pays...perfect HGMan has shown we will never need to pay anything at all to hold firearms...perfect.

Dude, thats not what I'm saying at all. You've just made up some nonsense, I never talked about user pays or anything, I've simply relayed the figures I have come across.

I did say that. Because its pretty simple maths. I showed my working, feel free to do the sums yourself, would you like a calculator?

You are the one making things up, where did I bring up user pays or not needing to pay for anything else, just fucking nonsense.
