Your Official Information Act request, reference OIA 2122 - 0726 
On 26 April 2022, you emailed the Department of Internal Affairs (the Department) 
requesting, under the Official Information Act 1982 (the Act), the following information: 
“Can you tel  me, according to information that the DIA holds, if Christchurch City 
Council fully funded depreciation on its "three waters" infrastructure 1989-2002? 
If not, please attach information showing to what degree in each year 1989-

2002. 
I will make this same request of Treasury.” 

This letter is to advise you that we are transferring your request, in full, under section 14(b)(i) 
of the Act, as the information is not held by the Department, but we believe it is held by the 
Christchurch City Council. 
You will hear further from the Christchurch City Council concerning your request. 
Nāku noa, nā
