The general election might be behind us, but voters in East Hamilton face a by-election as local councillor Ryan Hamilton leaves to become an MP.

There's a St John's ambulance staff member onsite at Waikato Hospital's Emergency Department every weekday to try to reduce the wait time of arriving patients.

And action is underway to keep several low-lying Firth of Thames settlements above water for the next 100 years.
