Simeon Brown still has concerns of workings of WCC
The local government minister Simeon Brown said he still has concerns about the workings of Wellington City Council. That's despite his meeting with Wellington's Mayor Tory Whanau at parliament this morning. Tension has been building around the capital city's council after it's long term plan was thrown into disarray by a vote to stop the sale of its airport shares. It prompted a flurry of criticism from ministers - and even the threat of intervention, Kate Green reports.
