Te Pāti Māori is asking Police to lead an urgent investigation of allegations made against the Party.  

It denies claims Census information collected at Manurewa Marae was used in electioneering. 

The Electoral Commission, Stats NZ and Police are investigating - and the Privacy Commissioner is looking into the claims. 

Senior Political Correspondent Barry Soper told Heather du Plessis-Allan “Te Pāti Māori have come out, fists flailing, to say we’ve got nothing to hide” 

Soper said the only way to clear this matter up, is by looking into it.
