Opinion

The Government will not be supporting a bid to host the Commonwealth Games in Auckland, says Prime Minister John Key, adding the 2018 games would come with a price tag of about $600 million.

Last year the Government put up money to assess Auckland's ability to host the 2018 Commonwealth Games.

The assessment was commissioned by the New Zealand Olympic Committee and funded by New Zealand Major Events, a unit of the Ministry of Economic Development, along with government sport funding agency Sparc and Auckland councils.
