Wellington Mayor Tory Whanau has admitted to having an alcohol problem.

This statement follows another incident of drunken behaviour- which was recorded at a popular Cuba St establishment two weeks ago.

Wellington City Councillor Diane Calvert hopes she's getting the necessary support, but acknowledges the risk this poses.

"We need to make sure we've got people with the right skills and the right capabilities to make decisions in the best interests of the city going forward."
