Innovative finance for mine action: Improving the effectiveness of mine action through innovative finance (June 2021)
Format
Executive summary
The UK FCDO has commissioned Social Finance and the HALO Trust to explore the potential for innovative finance to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of all stages of mine action, from mine/explosive remnants of war (ERW) clearance through to restoration of economic and social activity. After extensive consultations with a broad range of government, NGO and private stakeholders in donor and mine-affected countries, there is a consensus that innovative finance has significant potential to address some of the current obstacles to more effective – and more effectively funded – mine action.
Rural board members reject one-off rates increase
More than half of Auckland respondents and 70 per cent of those from Rodney did not support the Mayor’s proposed one-off five per cent rates rise and 10-year budget during recent public consultation.
As a result, two Rodney Local Board members – Colin Smith from Wellsford and Warkworth’s Tim Holdgate – voted against supporting the five per cent increase at an extraordinary meeting to provide Local Board input on the budget on May 5.
Mr Smith said he simply couldn’t support something that so many local residents had been against and asked for the rates increase to be voted on as a stand-alone item in a much longer list of feedback.
