Labour Minister Kiri Allan responds to concerns

From Morning Report, 8:40 am on 29 June 2023

Labour Minister Kiri Allan has defended how her office is run, following allegations about workplace problems in her office.

A Department of Conservation staffer seconded to Ms Allan's office left more than a year ago due to problems with work relationships.

The chief executive of the National Emergency Management Agency also says he was aware of concerns about relationships in the minister's office.

Kiri Allan has responded to the allegations on her way into select committee this morning.
