The fluoride debate has resulted in some stormy scenes in Taranaki. Robin says the New Plymouth District Council has been the the target of the anti-fluoride movement. Councillors voted to stop fluoridating local water supply in 2011 after being heavily lobbied on the subject, but the chemical is going back in the water from August. Robin also talks to about the Healthy Homes standards and how a local woman's cold and mouldy rental is aggravating her children's asthma.
