Plugging a a solar panel into your own wall is currently illegal in New Zealand, but the Government's looking into changing that.

In a post on Facebook, Energy Minister Simeon Brown says work is currently under way to make this change happen.

Rewiring Aotearoa CEO Mike Casey has welcomed this move, saying this development would be 'amazing'.

"It's something that we thought needed to happen in New Zealand, it hasn't happened in Australia yet - we copy a lot of our regulations and standards from Australia, so we're breaking the mould and heading out and doing it ourselves."

Has a second NRL team in New Zealand edged closer to a reality after the NRL's new multi-billion dollar broadcast deal?

The Australian Rugby League Commission has signed a new seven-year TV rights deal with its existing partners on both sides of the Tasman, including Sky TV, starting in 2028.

The NRL wants to increase to 20 teams during that period, with Christchurch considered a candidate for an expansion licence.

Sky TV boss Sophie Moloney has been asked what the new deal means to that end.

"That's definitely one for the commission - that wasn't determinist of our values, we've valued it up based on what we've got and we love our Warriors."
