Kia ora Carl,
Official information request regarding water leaks.
Thank you for sending through this request, dated Tuesday 9 January 2024. Today, Thursday
11 January 2024, Wel ington City Council transferred your request to us in full.
The Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 (the Act) requires that
we advise you of our decision on your request no later than 20 working days after the day
we received it. Unfortunately, we cannot meet the timeframe and must therefore extend
the time to make our decision on your second, third and fourth question to Friday 1 March
2024.
This extension – which is being made in accordance wit
h Section 14(1)(b) of the Act – is
necessary because consultations necessary to make a decision on your request are such that
a proper response cannot reasonably be made within the original time limit.
Please visit the
Leaks. We’re working on it page on our website which details the number of
known leaks and open tickets.
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.
Ngā mihi,
Liam Davies
Governance Coordinator
