Subject: Official Information request - GCSP Population Projections

[You don't often get email from [FOI #24508 email]. Learn why this is important at https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentific... ]

Dear Christchurch City Council,

Please provide data used for the basis of the population projections for the GCSP.

I note we have had low growth rate over the last 34 years, a decreasing birth rate and increasing death rate. Interested to see how the population predictions were determined. If immigration is involved, where will the new people be coming from?

Ward by ward data and predictions please.

Figures for Waimakariri and Selwyn would be appreciated alongside the Christchurch data.

Thank you,

Yours faithfully,

T Dobbie

Dear Sullivan, Ella,

Thank you for the link although I cannot see the information that I am looking for listed there.

Please provide DATA used for the basis of the population projections for the GCSP.

I note we have had low growth rate over the last 34 years, we have a decreasing birth rate and increasing death rate. I would like to see how the population predictions of a 44% growth rate were determined. If immigration is involved, where will the new people be coming from and what qualifications will they have to contribute to making our city better?

WARD by WARD data and predictions please.

Figures for Waimakariri and Selwyn would be appreciated alongside the Christchurch data.

Yours sincerely,

T Dobbie

Thank you for your patience while we looked into this further.

 

The information is all online under 'background Documents' at the end of
the Spatial Plan website found [1]here.

 

The key documents to look at are the Housing Development Capacity
Assessment March 2023 and the supporting Livingston Report. The raw data
is from Stats NZ, which is also publicly available on their website, but
that will go to the level of Statistical Areas, not to the wards.

 

The assumptions are in the HCA Pg41, which is a duplication of the Stats
NZ website. The HCA then goes through and determines what projection is
appropriate. Link to the HCA can be found [2]here. Note this does include
comparisons with Waimakariri and Selwyn as well.

 

The Livingston Report on Housing Need shows what that projection looks for
households and then with some additional competitiveness. The Livingston
Report outlines the table of data used. This can be seen [3]here.

 

Note all of the information these predictions were based on are available
on the public website. There is no other information that we hold.

 

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
[4]www.ombudsman.parliament.nz or freephone 0800 802 602.
