AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Retail & Jobs: Kmart says its biggest NZ store opens in Auckland’s Westgate on Sept 10, 24/7, with checkouts moved to the front in a “Plan C+” layout aimed at deterring shoplifting. Tourism & Development: Construction has started on a new 158-room Rydges hotel in Tauranga at 45 The Strand, with conference space for up to 322 delegates. Housing Pressure: Plans are in motion for thousands of new homes and up to 20-storey high-rises near a Westfield shopping centre in Adelaide’s West Lakes area—using rezoning around transport links. Local Heritage: Tasman District Council has approved a wharewaka facility in Tākaka to house the Anaweka waka fragment, with a consent application expected by end of August. AI & Books: NZ bookstores report bulk overseas orders suspected of being used to train AI, prompting some to cancel deliveries. Security & Space: NZSIS says it disrupted a China-linked attempt to install intelligence-capable space equipment in New Zealand. Health Trial: Waikato DHB will trial a smartphone app for people recovering from alcohol or drug issues, launching in late November. Energy Debate: A major LNG vs renewables discussion continues, focused on keeping power reliable during dry years and transition risks.
