MEDIA ADVISORY: MP expense information leaked to the Taxpayers’ Union – will be made public tomorrow

1 April 2024

The Taxpayers’ Union has been leaked five years of MPs expense information up to early 2021 following a public request for data on how taxpayers’ money is being spent, reportedly available to alleged Chinese-backed hackers, but not to New Zealanders.

“We don’t know who used a secure channel to anonymously provide us with this data, but it appears to be legitimate,” says a Taxpayers’ Union spokesman, Jordan Williams. “As far as we can see there is no information that has national security implications, but it will certainly have political ones.”
