Call for an independent review into council rubbish tender

Reporter Community News

New Hutt City councillor Glenda Barratt has been on the job less than a week, but she’s already calling for answers over Lower Hutt’s controversial rubbish and recycling system.
She plans to call for an “independent” investigation into the $6-million-a-year rates-funded rubbish and recycling scheme, which was introduced in July but has run into some difficulties.
Separately, Michael Ellis​, a Lower Hutt resident who has worked in the procurement sector for more than 20 years and has held roles on council boards, has laid a complaint about the rubbish tender process with the Office of the Auditor-General.
What is your view of the new rubbish and recycling system?
