Auckland Council,

I noted, Auckland Regional Transport Committee (ARTC)- closed 10 Dec 2025

May I ask how you called for public nomination and on what platform you
have call for public nominations e.g. govt.jobs website. A copy of your ad
and pay rate as well. Also, how many applications you have received for
each of the role from the public and how many you have received from other
nominating agencies such as TPK or Ministry of women etc for your role.
How many you have shortlisted and how many you have interviewed. Also, can
I request to view the appointment letter if there is one sent to the
appointee. I am happy for you to remove all the personal information.
Further, How many vacancies are you looking to fill?

Yours faithfully,

john luke
