NZ First have until 30 September to file new returns

The Electoral Commission has given NZ First until 30 September 2008 to file new audited returns for 2005, 2006 and 2007 and explain why the ones they filed are incorrect.  Then they will decide what to do. The Police have announced regardless they are investigating the complaint over their 2007 return.

If I was the NZ First Auditor, I would be very very nervous about signing off any new return unless they get a personal undertaking in writing from the Leader and the President that all relevant financial records have been supplied.
