Frank Newman: UPDATE -“BOOK BURNING” AT THE HUTT CITY COUNCIL.However, not everyone is happy about the work being distributed, including a senior manager within the Hutt City Council. What we now know is that it was an unnamed senior manager who directed staff to remove Nagta’s Explanation. We understand the Council CEO, Jo Miller, was on leave at the time. I have asked for a copy of the directive, but the Council's "Information Management Team" has yet to provide the information. The fact that one of her staff issued the directive does not exonerate or diminish Jo Miller’s role in this matter. In an email of 27 February, she took ownership of the decision, saying, "We generally do not support the dissemination of information of this nature in our official buildings. The insert produced by your organisation spread a very particular political viewpoint and without counterbalance, was viewed as spreading misinformation. I stand by my staff regarding this operational matter." Jo Miller says The Explanation is misinformation, but doesn’t say why. The insert is a word-for-word reproduction of Ngata’s work. To label something misinformation when it is a word-for-word recital is lunacy..... breakingviewsnz.blogspot.com/2024/03/frank-newman-update-book-burning-at.html
