Names of the Crown Car contractors outside of Wellington
George Benedict made this Official Information request to Chris Hipkins
The request was partially successful.
From: George Benedict
Dear Chris Hipkins,
I note there is a number of Crown Limos at various places outside the main centres of Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch (where there are 16, 17 and 5 cars respectively). Which companies does the Crown contract to provide their VIP transport in smaller centres, like Tauranga and Dunedin? And how do these arrangements work?
Yours faithfully,
George Benedict
From: C Hipkins (MIN)
