Dinner (Te Haonui - Open to all) with an after dinner speaker: Gareth Hughes MP on the “State of the Libraries”
Gareth Hughes was entertaining yest at the same time informative and waas supportive of Libraries. He was doing his best to keep libraries free. He was there supporting Tauranga Libraries when their  council were trying to impose charges, and again for South Taranaki Libraries. He is drafting an amendment to the local government act to include that libraries should be free to borrow as they are for the community good.
