Two middle-eastern men and one Pacific Islander could be leaving New Zealand after being arrested on Monday in Tauranga in relation to immigration removal orders.

The 35 year old middle-eastern man was arrested from an address on Maunganui Road, the second middle-eastern man was arrested from an address on Waihi Road and the Pacific Islander man was arrested from Henderson Crescent in Merivale.

Should Port of Tauranga get consent to dig deeper into the harbour to allow bigger ship capacity?

No, it will harm the area's fisheries
Yes, the port must be cutting edge
No, the port is big enough as it is
Yes, the Bay's future depends on it
