Dear Ms Evans,

 

I refer to your request for information:

I am writing to request copies of meeting minutes that lead to and all
completed decision making matrix' and risk assessments used in the
decision to prevent children (as per UN/OCC age ranges) who are
unvaccinated against covid-19 at all public council facilities- including
but not limited to: Libraries, public swimming pools and museums.

I would like information regarding the number of people entering Turanga,
Christchurch museum and QE2 pool on a daily basis in October/November 2019
and again Feb/March 2021. I would like the total number of people who are
able to be accommodated in each of these facilities with 1 meter
distancing to be disclosed.

Council Response

The Council’s risk assessment was published on 6 January 2022.  This risk
assessment identified that  to minimise the risk of harm from COVID-19,
anyone entering a Christchurch City Council workplace will require the My
Vaccine Pass.  This requirement included all workers, elected members,
contractors and other third parties. The final version of the document was
considered by the Council’s Executive Leadership Team on 22 and 31
December 2021. Restrictions on entry to Council community facilities
commenced on December 3 2021 when the Government’s Orange Traffic Light
setting commenced. This was determined by  Council’s Executive Leadership
Team on 29 November 2020. There is no specific minute in relation to this
issue.

In relation to your second request, the details are attached and summaries
provided below:

 

Please note that some data is only captured at a monthly level anyway
(e.g. Room Hire and Tenants).
