Hamilton City Council prayer II

Alex Harris made this Official Information request to Hamilton City Council

The request was successful.

From: Alex Harris

Dear Hamilton City Council,

Thanks for the quick response to my previous request. Unfortunately, I have a followup. You've said that there is "no set format as representatives from a variety of religions are asked to attend on a rotational basis". I'd like to know:

* how frequently do these representatives alternate? Every meeting? Every month? Every year?
* the religious affiliation or denomination of the last five such representatives (so e.g. if they are a Catholic priest or a Sunni Imam), and the date(s) they provided this service.

I would prefer to receive an electronic response. Queries about this request will be automatically forwarded to me by the fyi.org.nz website.

Yours faithfully,

Alex Harris
