Dear Melissa Urban,
I am wanting to know what functions conducted by the HCC are outsourced. For example, things like road maintenance is something that would be outsourced, while running the library would be something done in-house.
Yours sincerely,
Brendon Mills

Hamilton City Council
Good Morning Brendon,
I have forwarded your question to the appropriate staff member and he would still like more clarification, see below:
Hamilton City Council undertakes a lot of activities from Road Maintenance, Library, Zoo, Stadiums, Parks and gardens etc. With the majority of them there are aspects of the service that is carried out by internal staff while some aspects are undertaken by third parties contractors.
Please be more specific in the question being asked.
Kind Regards,

Dear Melissa Urban,
My request seems to be pretty clear to me. All I want to know is what services and activities have been contracted out, and what is done 'in house'?
Yours sincerely,
