Good Day

 

I hereby acknowledge receipt of your official request, under the Local
Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 (LGOIMA), for
information on the legal advice provided to Councillors on their liability
if they do not follow the mandate to add chlorination and fluoridation to
public drinking water under Taumata Arowai.
We received your request on 24 April 2025 and will endeavour to respond as
soon as possible and, in any event, no later than 20 working days from the
day that your request was received.  If the Council is, however, unable to
respond to your request within this timeframe, we will notify you of an
extension.

 

The Council’s Governance Team is handling your request. If you have any
questions, please feel free to contact me at [1][email address].
If any additional factors relevant to your request come to light, please
do not hesitate to contact us so that we can consider them.

 

Yours Sincerely
