Labour is again having to fend off criticism about spending habits at the Ministry for Pacific Peoples.
The National Party has slammed the ministry for spending nearly $53,000 on four post-budget breakfast events in May, at an average cost of $76 per head.
It comes after the Public Service commissioner criticised the Ministry in August, after it spent nearly $40,000 on a farewell for its departing chief executive last year.
