Ah what are you gonna do? Not their money, only ratepayers (read FREE) money.
Hard to care too much if you work at the council. And you know, investigating stuff is hard too, so you know, they weren't likely to be caught early on.
I think heaps of staff knew about it and got various things out of it like lavish dinners, drinks etc. So I think it may have just been the case that pretty much everyone knew about it, and so something had to be done.
In Dundedin Council I think some dude sold off over 100 cars of the council fleet before he was caught! I kid you not: http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/ar...ectid=11282224
