Why the majority of local councils are backing Māori wards
Manage episode 439557176 series 3318262
After a change in central government policy, councils have overwhelmingly voted to keep Māori wards, but we'll first have to ask the public what they think via a referendum.
There's concern these polls will put more costs on councils that they simply can't afford.
This week, Georgina talks to Newstalk ZB Wellington reporter Azaria Howell to discuss the political background to this law change and exactly how much these referendums are going to cost, and later talks with Far North District Mayor Moko Tepania about why his community supports having a Māori ward.
