Hon MICHAEL WOOD: I think it is reasonable when these significant transport projects are finished, that have had a degree of large disruption for communities, for communities to be brought together to celebrate those events. After that event, I did convey to Waka Kotahi that I believe it is important that costs are minimised as much as possible, which is why I was very pleased that for the opening event for the Waikato Expressway last week, which our Government has delivered, less than $100,000 was spent on that, which compares very favourably indeed to the $1.1 million the previous National Government spent on the Waterview Tunnel opening event.
