MP Aaron Gilmore apologises
National List MP Aaron Gilmore is this morning apologising to staff and patrons at the Heritage Hotel Hanmer Springs following a dinner he attended there on Saturday 27 April.
“As a group of diners our behaviour was at times boisterous and I sincerely apologise for any offence this may have caused any staff and/or patrons,” Mr Gilmore said.
“I intend to convey my apologies on behalf of the group to hotel staff, and understand that Members of Parliament should uphold, and be seen to uphold, the highest of standards at all times.
“On this occasion I believe as a group, our behaviour fell short of this mark, and I should have recognised this at the time.
“I also plan to pass my apologies on to the Prime Minister for failing to meet the standards I believe National MPs should uphold.”
