Taxpayer-funded billboards promoting Lawrence Yule have raised the ire of a lobby group.
The Taxpayers' Union has filed an official complaint with the Electoral Commission and the Parliamentary Speaker's Office over the Tukituki MP promoting himself as the "Voice in Tukituki".
Taxpayers' Union spokesman Louis Houlbrooke said the taxpayer-funded billboards had recently gone up in his electorate.
"This is straight-up election campaigning courtesy of hard-earned taxpayer money, which is not allowed," he said.
Yule dismissed the claims, saying the signs have been up since the beginning of February.
