A property development company is taking Kāinga Ora to court, over its refusal to fast track a $4 billion housing development in Papakura.
Winton Land is accusing the state housing agency of engaging in anti-competitive behaviour, by refusing private developers fair access to fast-track powers and paying well above market rate for land.
Chief Executive Chris Meehan won't say how much money is being sought, but says the money is significant.
He told Mike Hosking they don't actually want money, they just want Kāinga Ora to process their application.
