Information Request – Region boundaries

I refer to your official information request dated 8 June 2022 asking for the following information:

I am wanting to request a map of all the regions and their respective boundaries, as
well as the boundaries for the three command centres.

In accordance with the provisions of the Official Information Act 1982, I enclose a map showing the
boundary of our five Regions.

The same map also provides the boundary of the three Communication Centres. They are as follows:
•
Northern Communications Centre catchment is Regions Te Hiku (Blue) and Nga tai ki te
Puku (Green)
•
Central Communications Centre catchment is Region Te Upoko (Tan)
•
Southern Communications Centre catchment is Regions Te Ihu (Red) and Te Kei (Gold)

You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of this decision.
Information about how to make a complaint is available at www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or
freephone 0800 802 602.
