. . . and just general streamlining of RUC collection. Easy to tweak charges based on individual vehicle weights but be aware that my 380km range EV weighs less than most double cab utes so be careful what you wish for.

I'm over 98.773% certain that "streamlining", "easy", and words of that ilk are not only absent from the Civil Service Thesaurus, they're probably explicitly banned under the Suppression Of Terrorism Act and absolutely forbidden by OSH lest they cause spontaneous choleric attacks among the Legal Fraternity and the administrative self-circumnavigating drafters of statutes.

Simple laws coming out of Wellington?    [ YEAH, RIGHT ]

You've got to be dreaming mate. The gun ownership situation in the US is absolutely huge. I've worked with US expats in the oil industry and their boasts of the extent of their and their mate's gun collections are eye watering. SM posts of families surrounded by their home's armoury would tend to support this.

There's also a major security issue with compiling a list of firearm locations if done by some volunteer contributor means. A potential shopping list for the crims?

agreed, that is probably the one major reason why a volunteer led register won't work.  Most firearms owners won't not be trusting enough to believe that the organisers can and will keep it secure...  None of them will want to make themselves targets...

Well, of course, firearms owners are only too well aware that "others" are born to be targets, and we know what is planned for targets.
