Auckland leaders oppose homeless ban, citing systemic causes and urging housing and health investments instead.
A coalition of Auckland leaders and community groups has opposed a proposed homeless ban in the city centre, warning that criminalizing rough sleeping is ineffective and inhumane.
They argue the root causes are systemic—such as housing shortages, cuts to public housing, and tax breaks for landlords—and urge the government to prioritize stable, affordable housing, expanded health services, and a Duty to Assist law.
The group cautions that pushing unhoused people out would displace them into suburbs like Avondale, straining already limited resources, and stresses that long-term solutions require sustained investment and inclusive public spaces.
