Infrastructure, jobs, and vacant land hot topics at Christchurch Central electoral debate

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

With two months until the general election, Christchurch Central candidates from the two leading parties have agreed on the problems facing the city, but disagreed on how to tackle them.

At a debate in the city on Thursday night, sitting Labour MP Duncan Webb and National party contender Dale Stephens fronted questions from the audience and from debate moderator Amy Carter, chief executive of the Christchurch Foundation.

Surviving the Covid-19 crisis, jobs, infrastructure, and vacant central city land emerged as hot topics in the debate, organised by the Central City Business Association.
