Show Notes

Proposals to cut Wellington's swimming pool and library hours have been scrapped.

The City Council finalised its draft 10-year budget today, in a meeting lasting almost seven hours.

The Council voted on spending cuts, including unpopular proposals to trim community services.

Councillor Nicola Young disapproves of this verdict, saying one local pool's had its time. 

"They are spending a lot of money, and they can never stop."
