A Wellington City Councillor is not convinced the Government will intervene - and is defending the Council.

The Local Government Minister's taking advice on potential intervention.

Councillors must find cost savings after u-turning on plans to sell the 34 percent stake in Wellington Airport - estimated to be worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

Councillor Tim Brown says there is no ongoing dysfunction.

"I would definitely bet a beer on them not intervening - but that depends on us being able to sort the problem ourselves. If we can sort the problem, why would they intervene?"
