Of particular interest is the geotechnical assessment of the underlying

Crescent. Your request has been considered under the Official Information
Act (OIA).

 

After an extensive search of our systems, I can confirm that there are no
geotechnical assessments for the above-mentioned property. As this
information does not exist, I am unable to provide you a copy as per
section 18(e) of the OIA and section 53(a) of the PA.

 

Your enclosed response contains documentation relating to how any/all
dwelling claims were assessed and settled for the requested property.
These have been provided under the following claim summary divider(s):

In accordance with the provisions of section 141(2) of the Natural Hazards
Insurance Act 2023, I have included NHC Toka Tū Ake documentation relating
to the assessments and repairs carried out at the property, which contains
information held on unassigned claim numbers. The claim owner has not
provided authority for you to have access to the claims, however, pursuant
to section 141 (4) (a-b) you have a public interest to receive information
relating to natural hazard damage to the property. 

 

To protect the privacy of the respective owners, I have withheld

confirmed as increased risk of liquefaction/flooding.  They are for
reference purposes only and do not necessarily reflect the actual works
for a specific property, nor do they reflect an actual settlement figure
for the land claim.
