A number of organisations are trying to figure out what to do with donations made by Sir Ron Brierley.
The 83-year-old former business high flyer pleaded guilty in Sydney last month to three charges of possessing child sex abuse material.
Herald senior reporter David Fisher says Cricket Wellington is one of the organisations working out what to do with the money.
