Ms Hadley told the Otago Daily Times earlier this week that all staff wages would return to normal once staff could return to work. The worst-affected people were predominantly employed in Invercargill’s pools and libraries, and were among the lowest paid council staff, he said. ''This decision will cause hardship to rate-paying Invercargill families, and is a betrayal of the values the council should uphold," Mr Barclay said.
