There are renewed calls for a new super city, combining Wellington, Porirua and Lower Hutt.
A new Wellington Chamber of Commerce pre-election report suggests business leaders would like the cities to merge.
Chamber Chief Executive Simon Arcus says a Wellington super city would be able to deal with issues more efficiently and effectively than the current councils.

David Shand, a former Wellington City councillor and part of Auckland’s Royal Commission, which formed the supercity council in 2009, joined Kerre Woodham.
