Is Wellington for sale? Five council organisations into one private company
- Wellington Scoop
- It is my opinion that Kevin Lavery and some of the city council leadership team have an agenda for privatising and commercialising city assets that they are determined to push in an opaque and autocratic way. Let’s take a look at WREDA for example – the Wellington Regional Economic Development Agency that was launched with great fanfare last year and has since disappeared off the radar. Its role is to replace five Council-Controlled Organisations: Grow, Positively, Destination, Venues, and Major Events.
