Todd Talks with Todd Muller National MP

My family has been touched by the many messages of good wishes we received prior to Michelle's back surgery last week.

The operation was successful but she cannot do very much for the next few weeks, so I'm on home-leave to care for her and the family ‘til she's back up to full strength.

While I am on leave from Parliament, my team and I remain available locally to assist constituents as usual. There are also some key issues that I am keeping on top of, including providing verbal evidence to the Environment Select Committee on behalf of the thousands of recreational fishers and divers who are going to be locked out of the reefs off Motiti Island next month.

We are also keeping the pressure on to get progress on the provision of after-hours health care in Pāpāmoa.

Another project my team is working on is my next electorate-wide newsletter. This goes into the letterbox of every Bay of Plenty constituent twice per year, and in my spring newsletter we are putting together a directory of community help organisations.

We started developing this online directory during our first Covid lock-down last March, and having a print version delivered to every constituent will mean everyone can access it - even those without internet connectivity.

If you represent an organisation that isn't already listed at: www.toddmuller.co.nz/community please make contact with me via: todd.mullerMP@parliament.govt.nz with details of how you are able to help people in our community.
