The mayor of Rotorua says there needs to be greater collaboration with the government to fix problems around the state of emergency housing in the city.

Both Te Pāti Māori and the National Party are calling for an inquiry into the issue in Rotorua.
Mayor Steve Chadwick told Morning Report the problems are escalating.
