Dear John 



We are halfway through the year, and my team and I have been busier than ever!  You can read all about it in my newsletter, now available online.   



This month, topics include:



- Interactive engagement workshops held to determine priorities for the communities of Cambridge, Tirau, Putaruru, Tokoroa, Taupō and Turangi and surrounds, and what to expect next.  <[link removed]>

- Post Budget events <[link removed]>

- Visiting MPs and public meetings  <[link removed]>

- Celebrating Volunteers  <[link removed]>

- Affordable housing development celebrations <[link removed]>

- Join the debate <[link removed]>

- Howl of a protest - where you can find me <[link removed]>



Thank you to everyone who came along to share your views and ideas on priorities during our engagement roadshow. I will be providing regular updates on actions arising out of our conversations, starting with our mid-yearly print newspaper due in your mailboxes by the end of this month.  



<[link removed]>Our C2P public meeting in Cambridge went well, and upcoming public meetings in August and September include Climate Change with Stuart Smith MP and Fair Pay Agreements with Scott Simpson MP.  We would love to see you there.



In the meantime, if you have any concerns, whether about your family, your community or the direction of our country at the moment, I really would like to hear them. If you haven't made it to one of our meetings so far, there are still opportunities to catch up with me.



You can read my newsletter online here. <[link removed]>



Hope to see you soon!



Kind regards,







Hon Louise Upston

Join the Debate <[link removed]>



From issues such as He Puapua <[link removed]> to the Ute Tax <[link removed]>, I'm hearing from people that they are starting to feel left out on decisions being made by the Government that affect all of us, but without opportunities to have our say.  At the same time, more than 4000 children are left to grow up in motels and mental health services are in crisis. 



If you want to have a say in your future, demand the debate, and sign up  <[link removed]>to receive updates <[link removed]> on these and other vital issues facing our country.
