I know of lots of aid that is being delivered by Operation People and Voices for Freedom in truckloads.
It is an impression that very little official aid is making it up to Hawkes Bay and Gisborne and it looks as if we might be seeing a repeat of what happened with Lismore in New South Wales where aid simply didn’t arrive and some of it was thwarted (see below).
At the very least, the following stories are a case of bureaucracy-gone-wild but it is not difficult to reach conspiratorial conclusions.
I am going only by the information I have available.
COUNCIL & POLICE STOP DONATIONS GOING TO HAWKES BAY
After organising four plane loads of donations, community minded Papa Hone & Rachel from One Whanau at a Time, had a plane load refused by authorities as they attempted to deliver it to the Hawkes Bay region.
Local council was accompanied by police to meet the plane & seized the load saying if they wanted to bring things in they had to go back to them.
