Wayne Brown wants govt to tax-back 40 million for Auckland

Mayor Wayne Brown reckons his idea for a tax-back for Auckland is superior to the government's plan for tax cuts. The government's exempt from paying rates on its own buildings in Auckland; that includes hospitals and schools. Wayne Brown wants it to pay-up the estimated 40 million dollars the city loses out on each year. On top of that the government claims GST on rates; that adds up to another four hundred and fifteen million dollars a year . Auckland mayor Wayne Brown speaks to Lisa Owen
