How many registration failures for AT online membership?

Jason Brown made this Official Information request to Auckland Transport

The request was partially successful.

From: Jason Brown

Dear Auckland Transport,

I have attempted on three different occasions to register my card online. Each was unsuccessful. Friends have also tried to register online, also without success.

When I rang to inquire what the problem was, a helpful phone operator offered to register my card then and there - great service.

My questions are:

Are Auckland Transport monitoring the website for failed registrations?

1. If not, why not?
2. If so, how many failed registrations have there been?
3. Who is responsible for handling the online registration elements on the AT website?
4. What are the costs associated with online registration - is it a private contract or inhouse project, or a bit of both?

Yours faithfully,

Jason Brown
Journalist

Hi Jason,

I encourage you to complaint to the Ombudsman over the withheld costs.

You can make a complaint online here: http://www.ombudsman.parliament.nz/make-...

LGOIMA 7(2)(b)(ii) is not a conclusive withholding reason, as it is subject to a public interest test in 7(1). AT do not mention that they have weighed this against the public interest at all. I consider that the public interest in this case is high enough that we should be entitled to know the costs.

In addition, AT need to be able to be able to identify quite specifically the prejudice that could occur, why it is "likely", and also justify how such prejudice would be "unreasonable".

Although they may not disclose the above analysis publicly, they would need to provide it to an investigator from the Office of the Ombudsman.

If you are interested, the Ombudsman has a guide which details the steps an organisation must go through to be able to correctly use this withholding reason: http://www.ombudsman.parliament.nz/syste...

Regards,

Oliver
