From: Sam Malik
Dear Shane Reti,
My request asks for the costs and length of lease for four of Wellington Health buildings - 133 Molesworth Street, ACC building, Spark Buildings and Tory Street building.
In the process of Health Cost cutting, did the Minister considered having all staff in 133 molesworth as most of their staff are working remotely and our last visit to 133 molesworth and questioning to some staff confirmed most of the building is usually empty.
Yours faithfully,
Sam
