Capital Letter: Georgina Campbell on the decision to appoint a Crown observer to Wellington City Council

Local government minister Simeon Brown has decided to appoint a Crown observer to Wellington City Council. The decision was reached after the council's long-term plan was forced back to the council table after a vote to ditch the sale of the council's 34% stake in Wellington Airport.  Now all eyes turn to who the observer will be - and what problems they might uncover.  NZ Herald's Wellington issues reporter Georgina Campbell joined Nick Mills for the Capital Letter.
