What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

NZ First has proposed a ban on the public sale and private use of fireworks in New Zealand. The party stated the proposed legislation would also prohibit the manufacture and import of fireworks for private use, though professionally organized public displays would still be permitted. Winston Peters, leader of NZ First, stated the issue was about the right to peaceful living rather than freedom.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The proposed ban targets the private use, sale, and import of fireworks. If enacted, the legislation would directly regulate the fireworks industry and its supply chain.
