David Seymour: Act Leader labels Environment Ministry's transport spending as hypocritical

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Thursdays

The Environment Ministry is facing criticism for spending little on public transport. Data released under the Official Information Act has revealed it spent more than $900,000 on flights from January 1 to November 29 last year. It spent just $251 on public transport fares in that time, but more than $97,000 on taxis, shuttles and Ubers. Act Leader David Seymour told Mike Hosking it's hypocritical. He says it seems Climate Change is not a real thing to the people in the Ministry for the Environment - it's a bureaucratic process that allows them to lecture people.
