Agreement from Wellington's Mayor over council rates needing to be kept in check.
The Government's proposing to cap rates increases at 4% a year, with only water rates and other non-rates revenue to be excluded.
Wellington Mayor Andrew Little says rates increases are due to decades of under-spending.

Little says a lot of people are watching rates rise astronomically along side other costs, and councils need to do a better job at controlling this.
