Wanaka and Q'town Aurora sessions cancelled - Commerce Comission

From the Commerce Commission:

We regret to inform you that we have decided to cancel today’s consultation meetings in Wanaka and tomorrow’s meetings in Queenstown due to last night’s COVID-19 developments.

We have made this decision due to not being able to predict the number of attendees to our open public drop-in sessions and the requirements to organise social distancing and face masks at short notice. We also want to give our Auckland-based staff the time to return home as soon as possible.

We apologise to those of you have travelled or taken time off work to attend our sessions.

 We have found it extremely valuable to be in Dunedin and Central Otago over the past week, hearing directly from affected communities about their concerns. We are sorry that we are not able to complete our remaining sessions at this time.

We really want to hear the views of communities in Wanaka and Queenstown Lakes and we are exploring holding online sessions as an alternative. We will be back in touch to confirm details shortly.
