New child restraint laws
From 1 November the mandatory use of child restraints in vehicles will be extended by two years, with all children
required to be correctly secured in an approved restraint until their seventh birthday.
NZTA Road Safety Director Ernst Zollner said the rule change would bring New Zealand into line with the
requirements of Australia, and was an important step forward in improving the safety of children on New Zealand
roads.
"Children are especially vulnerable to injury in crashes, and th
vehicles are designed to protect an average sized adult. Because children are smaller and have different body

What’s changing?
The law says you must: Until 31 October 2013 From 1 November 2013
Correctly secure your child in an approved
child restraint Until their 5th birthday Until their 7th birthday
The law also says you must: Until 31 October 2013 From 1 November 2013

child restraint if one is available in the
vehicle (and if not, in any child restraint or

their 8th birthday
From their 7th birthday until
their 8th birthday
It’s a driver’s responsibility to make sure any child travelling in their vehicle is correctly secured. The
lead-in time for the new child restraint laws takes into account the need for parents and caregivers to
plan ahead and make the most effective choices for their family.
Child restraints must be correctly fitted. For expert advice you can access a map of certified Child
Restraint Technicians via www.nzta.govt.nz/childrestraints. For more information on the amendment Rule changes go to www.nzta.govt.nz/resources/rules/road-user-2004-index.html

NZ Post to trial fingerprinting process for employment/immigration Wednesday, 30 October 2013 - 8:20am. National News
http://www.police.govt.nz/news/release/nz-post-trial-fingerprinting-process-employmentimmigration
NZ Post will undertake a three month trial in the Auckland area commencing on 31 October 2013 offering
fingerprinting for employment, immigration and other purposes, a service previously provided by New Zealand
Police.
National Manager, Forensic Services Inspector John Walker says currently 10,500 hours of staff time nationally
per annum are spent by Police in providing this service.
"Whilst the current service is time consuming, fully manual, and involves inking applicants' hands, NZ Post will
provide a cleaner, faster electronic capture and copy system,” Mr Walker said.
Currently, the three month trial is limited to the Auckland area, with the participating PostShops being
Wellesley Street (Auckland City), North Harbour, and Manukau. From 31 October Police will not be providing
this fingerprinting service in the Auckland area. Applicants will need to go to one of the PostShops mentioned
rather than to a police station to obtain the fingerprinting service. There will be a charge for this service.
Outside of the Auckland area, this fingerprinting service will still be available from Police Stations as usual until
further notice.
EXCEPTION
South African Nationals - Until further notice the South African High Commission has requested that Police
advise all South African nationals requiring their fingerprints taken to contact the South African High
Commission in Wellington.
