UnitedFuture leader Peter Dunne today welcomed the Wellington City Council’s review of the how the region is governed, but cautioned against it being “yet another process to delay the inevitable”.

Addressing the Wellington Federation of Progressive Associations annual meeting this evening, Mr Dunne said years of regional infighting and a lack of cohesion meant Auckland had consistently failed to pull its weight.
