Re: Costs for Maori policy unit and IMSB
I refer to your email dated 5 April 2014, which we received on 7 April 2014, requesting
information about the costs for council’s Maori policy unit and Independent Moari Statutory
Board.
There is no monthly reporting to council but rather a quarterly performance report which
covers Maori Outcomes and Treaty audit responses. This report is presented to the Finance
and Performance Committee of council, and the agenda papers are available to the public
on the council websit
e www.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz. The December quarterly report was
presented to the Finance and Performance Committee meeting which was held on the 20
February 2014.

Angamua (council’s Maori policy unit) and the Independent Maori Statutory board and their
costs are as follows.
