Ten Northlanders are amongst 103 Lotto players from all over New Zealand each winning $10,363 in Saturday's Strike Must Be Won draw.
The jackpot of $1 million was not won by a single ticket and therefore rolled down to Division 2, where it was shared by 103 players.
Northland winning tickets were bought at Kaitaia: Marston Moor and Pak N Save; in Whangarei: Corner Cardz N Magz, Meadow Park Store in, Pak N Save and Sunnyside Foodmarket; and four via MyLotto.
Winning Strike numbers were 20, 31, 15 and 10.
At alert level 2 Lotto NZ extended the claim period for winning paper tickets that expired during the lockdown. Players have until June 4 to claim these prizes.
Maunganui Bay rāhui
The Ministry of Primary Industries is seeking public views on a proposal to extend by another two years a temporary fishing closure, or rāhui, at Maunganui Bay in the Bay of Islands, also known as Deep Water Cove.
The bay has been closed to the taking of all fish and shellfish, except kina, since 2010.
The rāhui was originally imposed by hapū but MPI later came on board and gave the ban legal teeth.
