Heather du Plessis-Allan: These Easter trading laws are inconvenient nowadays

If you’ve been debating the issue of the two New World supermarkets in Wanaka breaking Easter trading laws repeatedly, including this year, I reckon you probably fall into one of two camps.

Camp one- It gets on your nerves because these guys are quite clearly deliberately breaking the law, given they’ve done it three out of the last four years and have been fined twice already. And they shouldn't do that, because laws are there to be followed.
