Dear Wellington Water Limited,

 

Please provide the:

 

a) analysis / independent advice received or what was evaluated upon
selecting Fulton Hogan as the preferred contractor for Wellington Water.

 

b) The competing bids as to Fulton Hogan as the main contractor for
Wellington Water.

 

c) The charged alleged "fair and reasonable" contracting rates Fulton
Hogan has been contracted with Wellington Water for, as mentioned in the
media by Fulton Hogan without supporting documents from either Wellington
Water or Fulton Hogan:

 

--- clip news report ---

 

Dougherty noted the board did not have any say or involvement in the
day-to-day contract administration.

 

A Fulton Hogan spokeswoman said the company stood by its contracting work
for Wellington Water.

 

She said a summary of the report’s findings showed Fulton Hogan has
charged rates which are “fair and reasonable”.

 

“AECOM noted that if anything, they appeared somewhat low.”

 

--- clip news report ---

 

d) Confirm what type of tender or competitive process Fulton Hogan
underwent with these charged contracting rates and whether the tender has
been re-competed annually or other time period to make these competitive.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Miss W. Forest
