Dear Dunedin City Council,

Recently Dave Davies was quoted about the recent ORFU deal:
http://www.odt.co.nz/sport/rugby/highlan...

'Mr Davies said the deal with the ORFU was different, and he expected
some people would be "enraged" by it.'

Obviously council employees or employees of council companies doing deals that would enrage the ratepayers are a topical item of obvious interest to ratepayers - I'd like to ask the following question of the DCC under the LGOIMA:

"What information do DCC employees or employees of DCC companies have
about the stadium that might enrage the ratepayers?"

I understand that because there is only one rugby union in Dunedin and only one stadium there is no competition for venues or customers and therefore there can be no question of 'commercial interest' in keeping arrangements secret.

This is obviously an open ended question, Mr Davies admission that the council has secrets that might enrage ratepayers is obviously troubling and leads to question what other information the council might be holding that also might enrage ratepayers, I've limited my question to the issue of the stadium to reduce the scope to something manageable. My use of the word 'might' leaves it open to the ratepayers to decide whether to be enraged (not the DCC).

Yours faithfully,

Paul Campbell

Dear Dunedin City Council,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Dunedin City Council's handling of my FOI request 'Stadium arrangements'.

The statutory date for response to this LGFOIA has passed it is now in arrears

While you have passed on to Mr Davies one portion of my request you have not yet responded to the other portion which asked for a list of ALL secrets the DCC holds that might anger ratepayers.

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address:
