Three waters: Mayors arrive in Wellington to discuss reforms

From Morning Report, 8:34 am on 15 December 2021

Twenty-three of the country's mayors are headed to Wellington to voice their opposition to water reforms.
 
Communities 4 Local Democracy, or He hapori mō te Manapori, is a new local government action group formed to bring what it hails as "fresh ideas" to the Three Waters debate.
 
The leaders travelling to the capital mainly represent district councils, but the likes of Christchurch and Napier will be there too. 

Manawatū District Council mayor Helen Worboys, who helped create the campaign, spoke to Susie Ferguson.
