Wellington Water's Chair says the board's committed to improving the organisation in the wake of a scathing review.  

The report looked into a $51 million blunder which saw the agency tell councils they needed less funding than they actually did.  

It found a lack of leadership in the agency and issues with its organisational culture.  

Nick Leggett told Heather du Plessis Allan there's lessons to be learned. 

“We’ve got to improve the culture, we’ve got to elevate problems as they come up and be upfront and frank about them, and we’ve got to improve our systems – particularly in the finance part of the business.”
