Mr Glenn And Mr Peters Latest Recollections Of 05 |
||
Accusations that Minister of
Foreign Affairs Winston Peters solicited a donation from
wealthy expatriate businessman Owen Glenn and failed to
declare it to parliament's 'register of pecuniary interests'
have led to Mr Peters being hauled before parliament's
privileges committee. In the latest round of this saga both
Mr Glenn and Mr Peters' evidence of whether or not a
donation was solicited by Mr Peters personally seem at
odds.
When questioned in Parliament about this conflict of evidence by National's John Key the Prime Minister told Mr Key that in her opinion "both [Mr Peters And Mr Glenn] were honourable gentlemen and there may well be some innocent explanation."
