Kapahaka government funding

Debra from Merrilands

I am insensed that the government is giving Te Matatini $34m to resource their biennial festival. And it's only for the next one.

It's unbelievable that an event is allocated so much money and even features in … View moreI am insensed that the government is giving Te Matatini $34m to resource their biennial festival. And it's only for the next one. Where are they having it that it costs so much of our hard-earned tax money? It's unbelievable that an event is allocated so much money and even features in the budget. Surely $1m would be more than sufficient. I'd like to see the balance sheet. Education, health, housing all could spend that amount of money and make a difference to many people's lives.
An utter waste.
