Census 2023

For Amelia: this was supposed to be the first census that counted trans people, but I haven't seen hide nor hair of those results. šŸ³ļøā€āš§ļø The Law Commission's review regarding the Bill that Debbie is sponsoring is also MIA. I've got an email prompt set up for when that is published, after meeting one of the lawyers at an event that Ricardo hosted. - Re: drug law reform, I'm eagerly awaiting a research paper that Manu Caddie is writing about radula marginata and traditional use. That's one of my particular bugbears; it has cannabinoids but a different psychoactive, so I'm curious about the effects of PET (perrottetinenic acid - the other psychoactive). People haven't been breeding it to be psychoactive, so the current level in Wairuakohu is quite low. I've plugged this article several times - plus it's at-risk due to illegal harvesting: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6200358/

I've had an interest in rongoā for ages, so that's something that I might do instead of Level 3 and 4 in Te Reo. I met a rongoā student during the open day that said I could do that if I got the Level 2 qualification in Te Reo.
