The Makino Aquatic Centre is a very valuable asset to Feilding and its residents. Many clubs in the past raised money to build the pool. I am not a user of the pool myself, but respect that it is an important part of many organisations. There would need to be ongoing discussion re the development of the outdoor complex. Retaining the 50m pool seems to be the most desired outcome after discussion with many users. I would like to see the outcome suit the majority of users.

I am not familiar with detail of indoor pool problems but what I can say is I\'m committed to retaining the outdoor pool. It is not only an issue for the young and competitive swimmers but our aging population have become frequent users of swimming facilities. Swimming is more and more recognised as a low impacy exercise suitable for all ages.
