Auckland council officials face corruption charges

Three men with links to Auckland Transport and Rodney District Council have been charged in relation to allegations of bribery and corruption worth more than $1 million between 2005 and 2013.



The SFO said it believed George and an associate, while in
various engineering and management roles either at Auckland Transport or
Rodney District Council, received undisclosed payments or gratuities
from Borlase.



 The payments often came in the form of cash, travel, accommodation and entertainment, the SFO said.



The
SFO said a culture was created within the road maintenance division
where the acceptance of gratuities was part and parcel of the working
environment.
