An independent investigation found that Milne attempted to influence council staff to sell tennis court land in a way which would benefit Hutt Valley Tennis. Milne’s wife is the president of the tennis association.
In a separate complaint, Milne was found to have inappropriately contacted a general manager from Waste Management Ltd while the council’s waste and recycling tender process was still active.

Here’s what you need to know about the candidates in the running to be Remutaka MP.
At the October 17 election, New Zealanders will have the opportunity to choose their regional spokesperson.
Through the Mixed Member Proportional (MMP) voting system, those enrolled can vote for the party they want as well as a local representative.
Why does my MP matter?
The person elected will be the voice for your region in Parliament. If you're having trouble getting entitlements or dealing with Government departments, they can help. If your community needs funding for certain projects or activities, or there isn't enough healthcare in the area, the elected MP can step in and help.
To be elected, the candidate needs to secure the most votes.
