Tamihere Says No To Handshake - Outgoing
Waipareira Trust head, John Tamihere, has decided not to
accept a golden handshake when he leaves the post next

car has prompted criticism from political rival, New Zealand
First leader Winston Peters. However, Mr Tamihere says he
will not accept a cent and will leave the job empty handed
to minimise any disruption within the Trust. He is standing
for Labour in the Maori Electorate of
Hauraki.
