Phil Goff is clearly worried that the same people who are implicated in UN allowance scandal (senior Defence Force staff) are also those doing the internal investigation into the matter. Goff has sensibly stated that if he is not satisfied with the findings of the NZDF Court of Enquiry he will ask the SSC to investigate.

This scandal is the last thing Goff needs, and it is a bad look for the Government in general. No wonder the PM tried to to divert things in Parliament yesterday. A pity she screwed up on the facts.....
