Ubiaga

Ubiaga is a Wellington bar owner with over 20 years of experience operating venues on Courtenay Place. Recently in the news due to the suspension of his bar, The Residence, for a breach of the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act, Ubiaga has expressed his frustration with the local council's compliance focus, which he believes has negatively impacted his businesses. He argues that his breaches were minor and that the council has been overly critical, stating that he has corrected issues promptly when notified.
