Cuba Mall's Bucket Fountain For Auction
Ecoaction
On Tuesday May 1, 2001 Victoria
University's Ecoaction will be demonstrating against the
proposal of Hutt City Council, Wellington City Council and
Wellington Regional Council to transfer the management of
our water services to a trust. The main focus of this
demonstration will be the auction of the Cuba Mall bucket
fountain at 2pm. Ecoaction is opposed to the formation of a
trust as the trust will lack transparency and the trustees
will be appointed, not elected. Although the councils say
that privatisation is not an issue at present this will
change, particularly if the NZ government signs to the World
Trade Organisations General Agreement on Trade and
Services.
