EPMU reviewing National's third party injunction

The Engineering, Printing and Manufacturing Union has been served notice that the National Party is seeking to overturn the union's status as a third party under the Electoral Finance Act.

The National Party is also seeking an injunction to remove the EPMU's third party status until the case is decided - a process that could take months.

The EPMU is taking advice on this situation and will make further comment tomorrow.
