Simeon Brown: Local Government Minister considering 'next steps' for Wellington City Council - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

The Local Government Minister has little to say about Wellington City Council's fate.

The Government has signalled it's willing to intervene, after labelling the Council's Long Term Plan backtrack a 'shambles'.

Simeon Brown last week asked the Department of Internal Affairs for advice on potential intervention.

Brown says he's now reviewing it and is considering it.

"It's a serious issue, but as I've said, I've received the advice and I'm now considering it."
