Aucklanders still waiting for news on flooded houses

From Midday Report, 12:11 pm on 13 June 2023

Around 400 residents of flood-hit Auckland properties remain in the dark about who will qualify for a voluntary payout and they are demanding answers from the Council.

Many of the residents of homes deemed too dangerous to live in following the devastating Auckland Anniversary Weekend floods had expected information yesterday but were left with what they described as "radio silence".

They say the situation is financially dire for some of them and are demanding better Council communication.

Auckland Council group recovery manager, Mat Tucker, spoke to Gyles Beckford.
