Christopher Luxon: Prime Minister on Wellington's economy, the Interislander and the city council

Is Wellington City Council performing as it should be? The answer is a flat "no" according to Prime Minister Christopher Luxon, who told Nick Mills that the council needs to focus on spending on the right areas.  But Luxon wouldn't say how close the government is to appointing a Crown observer, but insisted the government is keeping a close eye on the council.  "I think you can read between the lines that I want better performance out of Wellington City Council."  He also revealed a plan on replacing the Interislander ferries hasn't yet gone before cabinet.  "We will have a solution, and we are very committed. You shouldn't be anxious about it."  Also discussed was the mood of Wellington, public service cuts, and the idea of a Wellington mega tunnel.
