Costs in construction of the engineering building 405
Lachlan Hickey made this Official Information request to University of Auckland
The request was partially successful.
From: Lachlan Hickey
Dear University of Auckland,
I am requesting an estimate on the costs all added up of designing, constructing and such or something similar within reason for the new engineering building 405. A document totalling all estimated costs would be appreciated
Yours faithfully,
Lachlan Hickey
From: Rebecca Ewert
University of Auckland
Dear Lachlan,
I refer to your request of 17 June 2022. The requested document is
attached. Detailed cost breakdown information has been redacted from the
document under section 9(2)(j) of the OIA, to avoid prejudice to future
negotiations with contractors in relation to construction work. Further,
if this part of your request had not been refused under section 9(2)(j),
then the University would have considered the need to withhold that
information to avoid prejudicing the commercial positions of our
contractors (by revealing to their competitors and potential future
clients how much they charged the University for particular work) and the
need to protect information subject to an obligation of confidence.
Yours sincerely,
Rebecca Ewert
University of Auckland
