Sir Ashley Bloomfield’s fluoridation orders unlawful, court rules
Orders to add fluoride to more than a dozen drinking water supplies have been ruled unlawful by the New Zealand High Court, likely delaying plans for a significant expansion of fluoridation
In July 2022, then Director-General of Health Sir Ashley Bloomfield directed 14 councils to fluoridate some or all of their drinking water supplies.
He did so under a new law that put fluoridation decisions in the hands of the Director-General of Health, rather than local authorities, where they had previously belonged.
A preliminary High Court decision released on Friday has ruled those orders contained a procedural error – namely, Bloomfield did not give specific consideration to the Bill of Rights Act in making them.
It means the fluoridation orders could be set aside or returned to the Ministry of Health for reconsideration before a substantive hearing on the broader issue next year.
The 14 councils were given a deadline to start fluoridating and would be subject to hefty fines should they fail to comply…READ MORE
Martin comments: Sounds like a win, yet in a show of just how “high and mighty” local councils are becoming, Whangerei District Council is ploughing ahead regardless. Its all about the $$$. Council pushes ahead with fluoridation, despite High Court ruling | RNZ News

No flouride is good, but there is still a concern with the replacement: chlorine.
The concern is two-part with aluminum being the other half.
The human body absorbs chlorine very rapidly, and aluminum is put in everything we get. Vaccines, deodorants, supplements, medications, water purification and aerospace are just a few examples of where aluminum is coming from.
Inside the body, chlorine and aluminum react to form trivalent cations in large quantities.
In 1977, it was found that ALL trivalent cations inhibit ferroxidase within the body. Ferroxidase handles the Iron/Copper transport chain in the body, and will no longer function properly. This is a systemic impact reaching the whole body.
We are absolutely loaded with aluminum from our environment and it causes many problems in the body; lipid peroxidation on RBC cell walls is an example.
Flouride is more electro-negative than chlorine, but that should not detract from chlorine’s obscene binding affinity; it’s a beast as well.
