Wellington's Mayoral candidates debate for their future

From Morning Report, 8:00 am on 21 September 2022

Voting for the local body elections is underway, and today, we bring you the second in a series of mayoral debates from our three main centres.

Te Whanganui-a-Tara, Wellington, is a capital city with an ever-lengthening list of problems.

An emptying CBD, water and sewage shooting out of failing pipes, plus housing and transport woes as the population grows.
