Photo: Martin HunterMore than $5.5 million has been spent on maintaining and repairing Christchurch's brand new Justice and Emergency Services Precinct. A union official working at the precinct said it's not a nice place to be. The Justice Ministry doesn't accept there's a problem telling RNZ in an email that the amount of repair work was expected. The Justice Ministry has confirmed that around 50 to 60 staff are being shifted to offices, about three minutes walk away.
