-- 根据周三提交给澳大利亚证券交易所的文件，G8教育（ASX：GEM）计划暂停旗下约40家中心的运营，这是对其网络进行评估的结果。 该公司将把客户转移到附近的中心，并在条件允许的情况下重新安排团队成员。之后，该公司将考虑这些中心的长期方案，包括解除租赁、出售或其他替代方案。 该公司还将重组其支持办公室结构并降低成本。 截至4月24日，其中心入住率为56.4%，同比下降7%；年初至今的入住率为56.1%，同比下降7.9%。 文件指出，由于持续的负担能力压力、出生率下降、全日制托儿服务供应增加以及严重的儿童安全事件打击了公众信心，整个幼儿教育和保育行业的入住率低于往年。

RBNZ Governor Says New Zealand Cannot Avoid Impact of Middle East Conflict
Reserve Bank of New Zealand Governor Anna Breman said New Zealand cannot avoid being "buffeted" by global forces stemming from the Middle East conflict, with the impact to be felt differently across sectors, regions, and households, according to a Wednesday statement.Breman said annual consumer price index (CPI) inflation was 3.1% in the March quarter, above the 1% to 3% target range and slightly higher than expected at the time of the April monetary policy decision, with much of the increase driven by fuel prices, though measures of core inflation have remained stable within the target."The Monetary Policy Committee's (MPC) decision on 8 April to hold the [Official Cash Rate] at 2.25 percent balanced the potential benefits of responding pre-emptively to the risk of higher medium-term inflation against the cost of unnecessarily stifling the economic recovery," Breman added.
