Christopher Luxon has already spent at least $1.2 million on Premier House, and now he refuses to tell New Zealanders what the final bill is.

“What is Christopher Luxon hiding?” Labour Campaign Chair Kieran McAnulty said.

“New Zealanders are entitled to know how much of their money the Prime Minister has spent on his lodgings.

“We already know at least $1.2 million has been spent, including $375,000 on scaffolding and building wrap, $283,000 on carpentry, $243,000 replacing the roof and $240,000 on exterior painting.

“While he’s been upfront about maintenance costs, he won’t tell taxpayers what he’s spent on basic things like carpeting, curtains or appliances.

“Premier House needed work, the least Christopher Luxon can do is come clean about the bill.

“This is taxpayer money, not Christopher Luxon’s personal bank account.

“New Zealanders shouldn’t have to wait until after the election to find out how much Christopher Luxon has really spent on Premier House,” Kieran McAnulty said.
