Public Service Minister Nicola Willis has directed ministry bosses to tighten up on working from home. 

Heart of the City has said workers returning to the office will help struggling businesses in Auckland's city centre and that Auckland Council could lead the way to revitalising the CBD. 

However, after reviewing its working from home policies, Council has decided it is not going to change its flexible working arrangements. 

Additionally, this week a large rubbish bin graveyard in central Auckland has sparked public outrage. 

This comes after Council’s removal of public bins as a part of Council’s cost-saving drive, promising to save ratepayers $9 million by getting rid of 30% of the region’s public bins. 

Sofia spoke to Councillor Julie Fairey about both of these topics.
