Good afternoon, Amy.

Speaker 2 (00:18):
Good afternoon.

Speaker 3 (00:18):
How are you going?

Speaker 1 (00:19):
Can't really complain with as long as the weather settlers
at South Down. But that's a topic for another day,
I suppose. But look there's a lot going on at
the moment. We're talking about local body politics. Now Environment Southland.
You've got to meet the candidates evening tomorrow night.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
That is correct. Yes, we wanted to provide the public
with an opportunity to connect and it directly with the
people who are putting themselves forward to represent them at
Environment Southland.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
So what's happening as far as the event.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
So tomorrow night, our doors open at five sat here
at the Council chambers at Environment Southland and we're on
the corner of North Road and Price Streets and in Chicago,
and we're going to keep things reasonably lively and fair
with a panel style discussion with some of our candidates.

(01:11):
So each candidate's going to have equal time to share
their views and respond to questions, and we'll be quizzing
them on things like their views on fresh water management,
climate change, adaptation and building resilient communities, amongst some other things.
So people can either come along and watch this live

(01:34):
or they can join us on our website channel or
our on our YouTube channel to see what people are saying,
hear the debate and the conversation and see what people
stand for.

Speaker 3 (01:50):
So that'll be the format tomorrow night.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
Amy, there'll be an MC just relaying the questions to candidates.

Speaker 3 (01:55):
I suppose that is correct.

Speaker 2 (01:57):
Yes, that's exactly how we're going to do that.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
So is that how you want people to get involved
through the streaming service that's provided or else to go
along in person.

Speaker 2 (02:07):
Yes, that is exactly the ways that people can take part.
The discussion is going to actually run from six to
seven pm and we really encourage people to engage in
this part of the election process. Elections happen soon. Voting
papers are going to be delivered this week and we

(02:28):
have a voting hub here at Environment Southland, so people
are welcome to drop their voting papers off here. But
prior to making these elections, we strongly encourage people to
find out more about what the people they are voting
for stand force.

Speaker 3 (02:45):
Well. The big thing is this is all about democracy.

Speaker 1 (02:48):
So we need to urge everybody who is enrolled to
get along and vote.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
Absolutely we do. You know, these are the people that
the people who are standing as candidates will be the
peace people that are representing the communities of Southland for
the next three years. That's a long time and it's
really important that they make sure that they're informed before
