Labour's finance spokesperson remains coy about the Government turning down a proposal to stop funding gangs.
Cabinet rejected a proposal in July by then-Justice Minister Kiri Allan banning anyone gang-affiliated from receiving public funding.
Grant Robertson says he doesn't recall getting involved with that discussion.
"Governments in the past have given a range of funding to agencies who work with those with drug addictions and so on- from time to time, those people have had links with gangs."
