Politics Thursday: Ayesha Verrall and Tim Costley discuss Wellington City Council, ACC

Wellington Mornings with Nick Mills - A podcast by Newstalk ZB

Wellington mayor Tory Whanau met with local government minister Simeon Brown this morning as he awaits advice on whether he should intervene at Wellington City Council. But is the council actually at the point where intervention is needed?  Also, ACC is facing a $7.2 billion deficit. How did it get to this point, and are increased levies the only answer? To face those questions, Labour's health and Wellington issues spokesperson Ayesha Verrall and National's MP for Otaki Tim Costley joined Nick Mills for Politics Thursday.  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
