Auckland CCO appointments

Whale Oil highlights how four of the secret appointments by Len Brown to CCOs were of politicians who failed to get elected in their own right.

One example is who was rejected by voters in standing for the Henderson-Massey Local Board, Wait­em­ata DHB and the Wait­akere Licens­ing Trust.

But Len has put him onto the Auckland CCO.

Even worse, the appointments (done with no Council consultation – just a ratification vote) include two members of Len's campaign team reports the Herald:

The mayor's office has confirmed that two of the new appointees, Pacific Trust chief executive and Pacific business leader Pauline Winter, were members of Mr Brown's election campaign team.

So of the 12 appointments Len made, four were of politicians rejected by the voters, two were of members of his campaign team, and one his controversial former CEO.
