Re: Tauranga City Council's consultation on Easter trading policy for shops.

The council has the problem of deciding what to do about businesses being open. Why are they telling shops who can and who cannot open? Who are they protecting? Why is the council involved? Shops should be able to choose themselves as to when they open. We have too many rules. When rules are bad or wrong, the rules will be ignored.

Look at the 30km/hr signs left up at weekends on roads – with no workers or machinery around, the 30km/hr sign is ignored.
