OPINION: Was the ASB Economic Weekly throwing shade on Reserve Bank governor Adrian Orr when reporting on his speech in Washington recently?
A prime example is the recent boo-boo made by the boffins at the Environment Ministry when the Government announced its much-vaunted Emissions Reduction Plan.
Apparently, the ministry accidentally published content on its website, where the reduction projection tool said: "Here are some of the actions currently being taken by New Zealand to mitigate against climate change."
This was followed by bullet points which said "Blah Blah Blah" three times.
When the error was discovered, a red-faced MFE official claimed, "It was not part of our Emissions Reduction Plan announcement..." and "it was taken down as soon as we were aware of it".
However, the Hound's mate suggests MFE's website muck-up was probably a lot closer to the truth for the Government's liking.
