The Tauranga Energy Consumer Trust (TECT) is an incredibly important local taonga which has hugely benefitted Tauranga and the Western Bay for nearly 20 years now. TECT has the potential, with the right leadership and guidance, to be even more valuable into the future.
In the year to 31 March 2012 TECT distributed almost $26m to BOP Consumers by way of cheques and a further $6m+ to important Community groups such as Waipuna Hospice, Sport BOP and Riding for the Disabled. In addition to the direct personal and Community benefits these funds generated, their impact on the BOP economy was enormous!
Trustee election packs are about to be mailed out and voting closes at noon on Friday 20 July.
I strongly urge all Consumers to exercise their voting rights. And I respectfully request, as a proven and consistent performer, that Consumers vote to re-elect me for a further term.
Bruce Cronin, Deputy Chair, TECT.

Booty would be a better choice of word

. . . and here we are AGAIN, all moaning, bleating and begging for a share of other peoples money, and what should be done with it. If it was just given back to the people it belongs to (ie the shareholders) there would be NO ISSUE! Let the people it BELONGS TO chose who they would like to donate it to I say. It is just another immoral lolly scramble of other peoples property. . . . and as for "taonga" perhaps a better word would be "booty" - as in a pirates looted cache! There is no doubt it has been distributed to some good causes, but it is the way it is collected and distributed is the problem - by the use of FORCE - the FAVOURED method to achieve everything in the immoral socialist state of New Zealand
