    The Local Government Minister has little to say - about Wellington City Council

    The Local Government Minister has little to say - about Wellington City Council


    The Government's signalled it's willing to intervene, after labelling the Council's Long Term Plan backtrack a "shambles".

    Simeon Brown last week asked the Department of Internal Affairs for advice on potential intervention.

    Brown says he's now reviewing it and is considering it.
