Snapper penalty fees

Delia Mason made this Official Information request to Wellington Regional Council

The request was successful.

From: Delia Mason

Dear Wellington Regional Council,

Thank you for the response to my recent request for information about Snapper penalty fees. I have follow up requests for information that I would find helpful.

Could you please provide:
1) the total amount of money collected as a result of snapper penalty fees for Wellington, broken down by month from January 2022 - June 2023.
2) the total amount of snapper penalty fees that are refunded to travellers for Wellington, broken down by month from January 2022 - June 2023.
3) what happens to the revenue from snapper penalty fees - what agency uses it, and for what purposes?
4) how much funding is retained as a result of lost snapper cards being found by members of the public and returned to snapper or a transport provider etc? My question is in relation to unregistered cards that cannot be returned to their owner. What happy to the money that is the balance on the cards? How is it used and by who?

Yours faithfully,

Delia Mason

The are two questions within your request that I am seeking further
