Kate McNamara: NZ Herald journalist on Moana Pasifika facing questions over funding contracts - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

The Moana Pasifika Super Rugby franchise faces questions over disclosure and transparency at ownership level.

It recently came to light that the team received taxpayer money indirectly through Whanau Ora contracts.

NZ Herald journalist Kate McNamara says it's unclear how much public money funded the team - but investigations are ongoing.

"It may be that all of their funding came from the Whanau Ora contract - but it may be that there's a small amount of funding from another source in there."
