Dear Haiku
Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987
CAS-1091165-T2V1J0
I refer to your email dated 25 June 2019, requesting the following information:
I am requesting the disclosure of the number of fines issued by AT, the number of queries
raised against these and the number of responses provided by AT to these queries including
the number of non-responses.
Infringement Issuance:
2017 = 514,859
2018 = 536,105
2019 = 302,189 year to date
Incoming Correspondence:
2017 = 72,185
2018 = 78,553
2019 = 40,756 year to date
Auckland Transport (AT) cannot separate figures for outgoing correspondence in response to
incoming correspondence to dispute an infringement. The outgoing correspondence amount wil
always be greater than the incoming amount due to other administrative tasks associated with
infringement notices, e.g. infringements served by post, reminder notices etc.
Therefore, your request for information is refused under Section 17(e) of the Local Government
Official Information and Meeting Act 1987 (LGOIMA) as the requested information does not exist.
Please see below figures for all outgoing correspondence.
Outgoing Correspondence:
2017 = 73,054
2018 = 86,362
2019 = 45,688 year to date
We trust the above information has addressed your request however should you believe that we have
not dealt with your request appropriately, you are able to make a complaint to the Office of the
Ombudsman in accordance with section 27(3) of the LGOIMA Act, and seek an investigation and
review in regard to this matter.
If you have any further queries, please contact Auckland Transport on 09 355 3553 quoting Official
Information request number CAS-1091165-T2V1J0.
Yours sincerely
John Strawbridge
Group Manager, Parking Services & Compliance
