The Ministry of Social Development (MSD) is defending paying an emergency housing provider double the market rent for a two-bedroom motel unit in Tokoroa.
The Amisfield Motel in Lochmaben Road, Tokoroa, is charging $770 a week for the two-bedroom unit.
Several other listings for rental properties with the same number of rooms in Tokoroa are priced at about $350 a week, however the price is in line with what other holiday motels in the area are charging.
