The Employers & Manufacturers Association (Northern) is extremely pleased with the appointees to Auckland’s Royal Commission of Inquiry who are to review Auckland’s local government.



“We have absolute confidence in the three commissioners appointed to the Royal Commission,” said Alasdair Thompson, EMA’s chief executive.



“We are delighted at the calibre of the people chosen for this critical role.



“We appreciate and applaud the fact that the appointments bring no political bias to their task, and no one can fault the record of public service of Peter Salmon QC, Dame Margaret Bazley and David Shand.



“The government has chosen wisely.”
