Waikato Regional Council changes mind, names misbehaving memberFAIRFAX NZ Waikato Regional councillor Clyde Graf was sanctioned for breaching the council's code of conduct. A regional councillor ordered to write two letters of apology after misbehaving has been named as Clyde Graf. Waikato Regional Council staff initially declined to name Graf, saying they could not see the merit in "naming and shaming" him. Council staff initially declined to name Graf after elected members directed his name be kept confidential, Payne said. Council chairwoman Paula Southgate was disappointed the names of councillors subject to complaints had not been released initially.
