On behalf of Hon Phil Twyford, thank you for your email.

 

While the Minister considers all correspondence to be important and all
messages are carefully read and considered, it is not possible to provide
a personal response to every email which is received.

 

Where the Minister has portfolio responsibility for the issues that you
have raised, your correspondence will be responded to where appropriate.
If your email falls outside of Minister Twyford’s portfolio
responsibilities, we will transfer it to the appropriate office.

 

Invitation and meeting requests will be processed as soon as possible and
we will contact you to advise of the outcome.

 

Thank you again for taking the time to write.

Dear Mr Ross,

Thank you for your email of 11 October in which you submitted an Official Information Act request as follows:

“On September 4, 2018 the Auckland Council Planning Committee heard from their Officers on the latest update around the Hamilton to Auckland Corridor Plan including that a draft integrated spatial plan would be formed before being sent for refinement and testing with "Key Stakeholders." A presentation on the Hamilton to Auckland Corridor Plan was also given by myself in comment on the matter, both the officer and my own presentations can be seen here: https://voakl.net/2018/09/05/presentatio...

Thus my questions are the following:
1) Is the draft integrated spatial plan able to be released into the public domain given it is being sent to Key Stakeholders for refinement and that Key Point 7 states consultation could be done

2) Who is the Planning Advisor that was jointly appointed

3) Who is the Project Coordinator

4) Has the project commissioned external advice on any aspect of the Spatial Plan, if so what, why and who by?

5) What basis or foundational material was used to help establish the Hamilton to Auckland Corridor Plan?”

Minister Twyford is considering your request in accordance with the Act, and will respond in due course.

Kind regards

Subject: Official Information request - Request of Draft Integrated Spatial Plan (Auckland to Hamilton Corridor) and Other Matters)

Dear Phil Twyford,

On September 4, 2018 the Auckland Council Planning Committee heard from their Officers on the latest update around the Hamilton to Auckland Corridor Plan including that a draft integrated spatial plan would be formed before being sent for refinement and testing with "Key Stakeholders." A presentation on the Hamilton to Auckland Corridor Plan was also given by myself in comment on the matter, both the officer and my own presentations can be seen here: https://voakl.net/2018/09/05/presentatio...

Thus my questions are the following:
1) Is the draft integrated spatial plan able to be released into the public domain given it is being sent to Key Stakeholders for refinement and that Key Point 7 states consultation could be done

2) Who is the Planning Advisor that was jointly appointed

3) Who is the Project Coordinator

4) Has the project commissioned external advice on any aspect of the Spatial Plan, if so what, why and who by?

5) What basis or foundational material was used to help establish the Hamilton to Auckland Corridor Plan?

I look forward to your reply

Yours faithfully,

Ben Ross
