Auckland's mayor Len Brown has cancelled another public appearance in the wake of revelations he had an extra-marital affair.
Mr Brown last week admitted a two-year affair and there is an investigation into spending by his office and whether the woman got preferential treatment.
He was one of three speakers due to launch a report in Auckland on Thursday evening on health within the gay community.
The event's organisers say Mr Brown's office cancelled his appearance about an hour before the launch began.
