Calls for the Dunedin City Council to walk the talk when it comes to being closed on Easter Sunday
Calls for the Dunedin City Council to walk the talk when it comes to being closed on Easter Sunday
7 September 2018
A council Hearings Committee has decided shops are no longer allowed to open that day.
They'd temporarily changed the bylaw this year to accommodate throngs of tourists in town for the Ed Sheeran concerts.
Retail NZ's General manager for public affairs Greg Harford says the council's reasoning is to make sure retail workers get a day off.
But he says some council workers will be required to work, so why don't they get a day off too?
