Dunedin councillor Benedict Ong.
A Dunedin councillor has been suspended from all committees and subcommittees for nine months because of concerns about his behaviour.
Benedict Ong faced a code of conduct complaint after revealing details about a potential hotel development at Forsyth Barr Stadium to reporters in April.
A preliminary assessment report found it appeared likely he was deliberately and repeatedly leaking information that could potentially jeopardise the council's commercial interests.
