Tania Tapsell: Rotorua Mayor says local councils should get a share of the increased international visitor levy - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

Local councils want to clip the ticket on the Government's increased tourism fee.

The International Visitor Levy has been bumped from $35 to $100 as of today.

Rotorua Mayor Tania Tapsell says local councils pay for tourism amenities, so the Government should share the profits.

She told Heather du Plessis Allan while the Government may not want to share a cut of the increased fee, it's worth asking.
