Porirua council's Covid-19 wage subsidy under investigation
The Ministry of Social Development has requested more information from Porirua City Council about $2.6 million worth of Covid-19 wage subsidies it claimed.
The council’s chief executive, Wendy Walker, said the council applied for the subsidy based on revenue for the month of April, which showed a greater than 40 per cent decline compared to April 2019.
Mayor Anita Baker, last week distanced herself from Facebook citing comments and allegations that the council accessed the wage subsidy illegally.
