Dale Kirk: Methcon Managing Director on the Government's lack of spending on Te Ara Oranga - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

The Government's spent only a fraction of the amount it promised to spend on a meth programme.

Last election, it said it'd spend $38-million this Parliamentary term to expand the Te Ara Oranga programme to four thousand more people.

But figures released to RNZ show it’s spent less than a fifth of that.

It has a 34% harm reduction rate.

Methcon Managing Director Dale Kirk told Mike Hosking that the industry's unsure why the money hasn't been spent.
