Discussion continues over Michael Wood's Auckland Airport shares- which he's now finally sold.

He was stood down over not disclosing Auckland Airport shares for years, and it's emerged he was advised 12 times to divest.

Parliament officials are investigating whether he's met all obligations in declaring interests.

Newsroom editor Jonathan Milne says he asked Wood in 2021 whether he had any other interests to disclose - beyond those in the register.

"In this case, he was actually asked directly. And he said no, so this is somewhat more than an error of omission, in my view."
