On Tuesday, New Zealand Public Party leader Billy Te Kahika said that the party’s internal financial documents that led to the complaint came from a person who has since left the party and had to communicate with them “through letters. legal “.
“The document that is an incomplete first draft of the koha payments is being shared. The document is now out of date and only had three people in our group: the person in question, Michael Stace (NZPP Party Director) and myself, Billy You Kahika, “he said.
“The kaupapa of our party is that we bring to light in the most transparent way possible any threat to our movement.”
Te Kahika released financial documents on Tuesday, along with two legal letters the party sent to the person who has since left the party. She said the only wording is to “protect people’s privacy.”
“To avoid any doubt, at all times we have acted within the law, we have acted with integrity and we have acted with transparency.”
There are five documents, of which two are legal letters, that were published.
The first describes the koha that is given to the party at events throughout New Zealand during July and August, as well as events, travel costs, and cash payments made through donations.
The second shows the bank transactions related to campaign expenses and the third is the deed of trust between NZPP and Rubicon Crossing Ltd.
The two legal letters sent to the former party member say they made “defamatory statements” to party members during Zoom’s calls.
The second legal letter asks the former party member to pay $ 1000 in connection with the contractor’s final payment, and to return all party documentation and information they have received.
Te Kahika is part of the Te Tai Tokerau electorate in the upcoming elections.
He joined forces with former National Party deputy and now Advance NZ leader Jami-Lee Ross earlier in the year.
