新西兰政府决定不为2011年遭到破坏的基督教堂重建提供额外的纳税人资金。 New Zealand's government has decided not to provide additional taxpayer funding for the Christ Church Cathedral rebuild, damaged in 2011. 英国圣公会警告说，预算缺口为1.14亿美元，后来减少到8500万美元，但财政部长尼古拉·威利斯（Nicola Willis）表示，对于一个非公有且公众使用有限的项目来说，贡献6000万美元将是巨大的。 The Anglican Church warned of a $114m budget shortfall, later reduced to $85m, but Finance Minister Nicola Willis stated that contributing $60m would be significant for a project that's not publicly owned and has limited public usage. 关于大教堂完工的最后决定现在似乎不确定。 The final decision on the cathedral's completion now appears uncertain.
