Surveys will go out very soon to all people either connected to the Waipukurau water supply, or directly affected by it e.g. schools, churches, businesses, tenants.
Information with arguments 'for' or 'against' will be included with survey / submission forms. The 'debate' information will be supplied by reputable groups i.e. Ministry of Health http://www.moh.govt.nz and the Fluoride Action Network (NZ) www.fannz.org.nz.
CHB District Council does not express a view on fluoridation, but we are asking people in Waipukurau (the only water supply that is fluoridated in CHB) whether they a) want to continue adding fluoride to the water supply or b) want to stop adding fluoride.

Today (7 July 2009) in the CHB Mail there were two letters to the editor. Freedom of speech is a fundamental part of our wonderful democracy and I applaud those who take the time and have the confidence to write a letter to a public forum.
