Hi Richard,
I think it's quite possible that the organisations/companies you asked about in your request may license the data via third parties. I suggest you make a request for all the current organisations that have signed agreements to access the dataset (FENZ's attempt to maintain the 'currency' of the data).
Cheers,
Andrew

In this OIA response, it is confirmed that none of Google, Apple or OpenStreetMap subscribe to the NZ Localities dataset.
The response was prompt and complete, very pleased.
