There are calls for Shane Jones to resign for sitting in on multi-million dollar funding meeting for a project he was once poised to be the chairman of. Mr Jones declared a conflict of interest in Northland's new Kupe education centre and asked Tourism Minister Kelvin Davis to preside over it instead. However, despite declaring a conflict he attended a key meeting in February last year where the approval for funding of the centre was eventually granted. Otago University Law Professor Andrew Geddis talks to Guyon Espiner.
