Green Party: state houses should not be built on flood lains

The housing ministry Kainga Ora is continuing to invest and build public housing in areas that are prone to flooding, despite being given warnings three years ago. Currently, more than 15 percent of the state housing portfolio is already on flood prone land. And of Kainga Ora's planned investments, more than 17 percent are in areas prone to rainfall, river or coastal flooding Ricardo Menendez March is the Green Party's housing spokesperson and spoke to Charlotte Cook.
