The government (both local and central) needs to be approached about bringing it to NZ. Yes, I think the companion card is a great idea.

It is a wonderful feeling when you are not expected to take second-class service. I think every disability organisation must be encouraged to advocate for a companion card or something similar. if you have a disability and ever go to Paris, France, you can visit many attractions free of charge if you have a companion with you. you also have preferential entry at places like the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre.
