From Checkpoint, 6:13 pm on 25 May 2023

A call tonight for the government to pay accomodation costs for people displaced from flood damaged homes as their insurance payments run dry and they remain in limbo.

The advovcacy group West Auckland is Flooding wants a fund people can apply to...to cover the cost of their temporary accomodation as they wait for authorities to decide about managed retreat.

Joining us now is WAIF spokesperson Morgan Allen.
