Topic: Election candidates event
Enquiry
looking to get some comment from the Andrew Moraes about last night's meet the candidate event hosted by the Rotorua business chamber.
Just something around his thoughts on the event, importance of voters getting to meet candidates and voting in general.
Response
From RLC Chief Executive Andrew Moraes:
Given that local govt is such a small percentage of household expenditure (just 10% of total tax paid to Government) it’s fantastic to see so many people engaged with local elections that shape the place we call home.
