A Wellington City Councillor is defending his comments on a commercially-sensitive Council deal.
The Post reports Council is looking to buy the site where Reading Cinema stands, for $32 million dollars.
The boarded up Courtenay Place complex has been closed for years.
Councillor Ray Chung is one of five people under a code of conduct investigation, around alleged breaches of confidentiality.
He's reiterating his feelings about the deal.
"I don't believe that this is a good thing for the city council to be getting into, getting a commercial proposal. Because we don't have any money to even fix our own buildings."
