From Morning Report, 7:36 am on 17 April 2023

The National Party says Local Government Minister Kieran McAnulty's comments about manawhenua representation on the new water entities is confusing and muddled.

Kieran McAnulty's has told TVNZ's Q+A programme it is "the right thing" that there is 50/50 representation of mana whenua and councils on the new water entities that appoint the people who will be running the ten new water authorities.

National Party regulatory reform spokesperson Paul Goldsmith spoke to Corin Dann.
