Petone motels lose contract for emergency housing
The Ministry of Social Development had stopped using three Petone motels after their clients were found living in substandard conditions.
MSD regional commissioner Gagau Annandale-Stone said the Midway Pacifica Lodge, along with the Du Pont Motel and Settlers Motor Lodge, were inspected following complaints. The three motels are all located along Hutt Rd and operate under a shared management team. “We found several issues of concern about the standard of accommodation provided, and repair work to be done.”
Annandale-Stone said the ministry expected clients in emergency housing to receive the same level of service as regular motel guests.
