Capital Letter: Interislander passenger service reducing to just one ship - Wellington Mornings with Nick Mills

Interislander's Cook Strait ferry service will be reduced to just one passenger ship as it struggles with an increasingly unreliable and ageing fleet.

Thousands of Wellingtonians will fork out for a rates increase of more than 15 per cent, due to a higher-than-average increase in their property's revaluation last year.

Wellington mayoral candidate Paul Eagle is promising to run the ruler over council spending, a new City Development Authority, and a world class arts precinct.

New Zealand Herald Wellington issues reporter Georgina Campbell joins Nick Mills on Capital Letter.
