The Transport Minister's defending the more than $100 million already spent exploring a second Waitemata Harbour crossing. 

Cabinet's agreed to a new Crown-led case into the pros and cons of a bridge or tunnel, and will also investigate a Meola Reef crossing option. 

The Government's not ruling out tolls, or potential co-investment from Auckland Council. 

Chris Bishop told Mike Hosking the reality is that these things cost money. 

He says it's a multi-billion dollar project, and the consultancy work already done won't go to waste.
