Another useless incompetent minister - Faafoi, Poto, Davis and now, Sepuloni. And this one lies!

A report from the Auditor-General has found the government had paid $37 million to use private rentals for emergency housing without any checks.
The minister is pleading ignorance.
Sepuloni told Checkpoint she was maintaining she did not learn about MSD funds being spent on private rentals until July 2020, despite an email in May 2020 from the biggest supplier of private accommodation that was sent to the prime minister and appears to have been forwarded to Sepuloni.
The email from Silver Fern Properties was obtained by Checkpoint under the OIA.
