The Environment Ministry has been criticised for spending $913,000 on flights over an 11 month period.

They also spent a further $97,225 on taxis, shuttles and Ubers, with only $251 being spent on public transport.

ACT have labelled this spending as outrageous and hypocritical and MP Simon Court said the Ministry should be leading Kiwis by example.
