Easter trading hours again up for debate

Parliament appears set to once again debate the contentious issue of Easter trading hours.

National's Jacqui Dean has had her Member's Bill drawn which seeks to makes allowances for Easter trading within her Waitaki electorate.

At the moment, Queenstown has an exemption to trade over Easter, but other towns in the district - like Wanaka - do not.

Her bill is likely to be debated on the next members' day during the last week of August.
