I am wondering how much in external counsel legal fees Chapman Tripp required the NZVCC to pay to defend Chris Whelan in court. I believe the NZVCC is required to answer as this is taxpayer's money that results from internal complaints not being resolved from within the organization. Else. if Chris Whelan was covered by liability insurance or if he paid the legal fees out of his salary...
