    Nick Sautner: Eden Park CEO responds to mayor Wayne Brown's comments on events funding

    14/05/2026 | 4 mins.
    Auckland mayor Wayne Brown has taken a swing at the Government's $70 million major events fund - while seemingly revealing its spend on bringing Robbie Williams here this year.
    Eden Park chief executive Nick Sautner says he can't confirm that figure and Wayne Brown's comments are disappointing.
    "The mayor - part of his role is to advocate for our city. Now, I’m not privy to the investment level. What I am privy to is the fact that the Government took a leadership position on getting major events back into the country."

    Nathaniel Herz Jardine: Christchurch city councillor on the council calling for a pushback on Airbnb

    14/05/2026 | 4 mins.
    Hotel developments are quietly disappearing and 'ghost communities' are on the rise as Christchurch's council has raised concerns over Airbnbs.
    Four motel and hotel operators urged elected members at a policy and planning committee meeting to support a mandatory registration system for short term accommodation providers.
    Councillor Nathaniel Herz Jardine wants Christchurch to take charge in rallying other councils to demand change.
    "All we ask for is...we need the data. It's not saying we want to ban them, it's not saying anything like that. It's just saying, at the moment, we're in this crazy situation where we're hiring compliance officers - they have to do stake outs and surfing online and fielding complaints about who's renting out what."
