Key on illegal spying on Dotcom

The unlawful bugging of Kim Dotcom and his acquaintance by the Government's foreign intelligence agency was revealed only after Dotcom's lawyers found out about it from police in the High Court. And although Prime Minister John Key said he was "quite shocked" about the unlawful bugging - and that he'd been told it was a genuine mistake - official concerns have been raised about the surveillance agency's actions in previous cases.
