Auckland Council Chief Executive Doug
McKay said today that the Mayor has no council credit card
and all invoices and payments from the mayoral budget are
checked and approved by the chief of staff.
“I have
received an assurance from both the Mayor and his chief of
staff that no mayoral office funds were used in relation to
the Mayor's relationship with Ms Chuang.”
“However I
have agreed to independently review this to confirm that is
the
case.”
