from Matt Heath & Tyler Adams Afternoons · host Newstalk ZB
An investigation's probing officials' integrity, over a now-axed $32-million-dollar project. A report's found multiple failings in the advice from Immigration New Zealand - a branch of MBIE - on plans to upgrade border biometric capacity. Minister Erica Stanford says staffers who raised concerns were moved off the project, and she was misled and creative accounting used to avoid scrutiny. NZ Herald deputy political editor Adam Pearse joined the Afternoons team to explain further. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
