“The Labour Party is deeply disappointed that a candidate standing under its name is being prosecuted for alleged irregularities in enrolments for the local body elections”, Party President Andrew Little said today.
Daljit Singh, a candidate for the Otara Papatoetoe Local Board – Papatoetoe Subdivision has been a member of the Labour Party since May 2010.
"There is no tolerance in our Party for conduct that undermines the integrity of the electoral process” said Mr Little.
"If it is established that Mr Singh has acted in this way then he can expect swift disciplinary action, including having his Party membership removed from him."
