Subject: Official Information request - Request for information re tâkina Convention centre

[You don't often get email from [FOI #31794 email]. Learn why this is important at https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentific... ]

Dear Wellington City Council,

Consider this a request for information under the local government official information and meetings act 1987.

1. What was the occupancy rate of the Tâkina Convention Centre for the most recent financial year?
(Please include monthly or quarterly breakdowns if available.)
2. What criteria or definition does the Council or its relevant subsidiaries use to determine when occupancy is considered “achieved” at the Tâkina Convention Centre?
(E.g., is occupancy based on number of days booked, square metres used, event attendance, or revenue thresholds?)
3. What total revenue was generated from bookings, lettings, and associated services at the Tâkina Convention Centre during the same financial year?
(Please break this down by event type or revenue stream, if available—e.g., conferences, exhibitions, catering, room hire.)
4. What were the original occupancy and revenue projections or forecasts for the Tâkina Convention Centre as outlined in its business case, financial model, or pre-construction planning documents?
(Please include any comparisons between forecast and actual figures, if these have been prepared internally.)

I understand your response may refuse or withhold information under provisions of the LGOIMA. I would request the council consider the public interest in the information requested. I would argue there is a High degree of public interest in the matter.

I look forward to a response on the matter within 20 working days.

Yours faithfully,

Guy Nunns
