Concerns are being raised around the use of taxpayer money to fund Moana Pasifika.
Our newsroom's revealed the Super Rugby franchise received some $8 million in taxpayer loans, grants, and funding.
The Pasifika Medical Association —which took over ownership of the team last year— has received funding from Whānau Ora contracts.

He wants to know it's being used for proper purpose and has asked for an explanation ASAP.
