Slushy Machine Spend
Liam made this Official Information request to Department of Corrections
The request was successful.
From: Liam
Dear Department of Corrections,
In April 2019, it was made publicly known that the Department of Corrections spent over $1million dollars purchasing 193 slushy machines, installed in 16 sites across the country for Corrections staff/Officers use.
Source: https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politic...
Based off the above fact, I am requesting the below information:
1. How many of the 193 slushy machines that were purchased/installed in 2019, are still in use as of February 2024?
2. If the answer to Q1, is that they are no longer in use can you please provide a brief explanation of what happened to the 193 slushy machines (i.e sold, returned to supplier etc) and when this occurred (Month and Year)
3. Other than the original purchase/installation costs in 2019, what are/were the ongoing operating cost of these slushy machines? (I.e Concentrate Syrups, Cups, Straws, Maintenance on the machines etc). Ideally if this can be broken down for each year, and for each type of expense.
4. If known, how many Corrections staff/Officers utilised these slushy machines (from date of install to February 2024)?
5. In total (from date of install to February 2024) how many bottles of concentrate syrup were purchased to refill the slushy machines nationally?
Yours faithfully,
Liam Gardiner
