Dear Wellington City Council,

Whilst Wellington City business has been destroyed due to your policies, ill conceived cycleways, unaffordable rates and general mismanagement seeing closures and layoffs I understand Wellington City still has an open cheque book to make the ratepayers life worse!

Total Wage Bill for Each Year Since 2020: Please provide the total annual wage bill for Wellington City Council for the years 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024.

Total Number of Employees per Annum Since 2020: Could you please provide the total number of people employed by Wellington City Council at the end of each year from 2020 to 2024. Please break this down into:

Full-time employees.

Part-time employees.

List of New Roles Added Since 2020: Please provide a comprehensive list of all new roles that have been added to Wellington City Council since 2020. This should include:

The title of each new role.

The team or department where each role is situated.

The year each role was introduced.

Total Annual Costs of Consultants: Please provide the total annual costs incurred by Wellington City Council for consultants and external services for the years 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024.

This email is to advise you that Wellington City Council needs to extend
