Wellington s water leaders say it s problematic and strange they have been left without a seat at a committee that s described as a key reference point for incoming water reforms.
The Government is in the middle of reforming local government s three waters services into a small number of multi-regional entities.

Mayor Tenby Powell resigned and called for commissioners to be appointed, and the council was sacked by Local Government Minister Nanaia Mahuta and replaced by four commissioners. ....
