Kia ora Georgina,
Milk Purchases
Thank you for your request made under the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987
(the Act), received on 29 August 2022. You requested the fol owing information:
• How many litres of dairy milk are purchased per year for Council staff?
Wellington City Council has partly
granted your request for information.
The Council holds data on milk purchased specifically for our central and corporate sites, however the data
is not detailed enough to also capture all our remote sites, such as smaller branch libraries. We are
therefore refusing your request under section 17(g) of the LGOIMA because the requested information is
not held.
We can, however, confirm the total litres of milk purchased in one year for the following central and
corporate sites:
Tahiwi – 113 The Terrace
Kai Upoko – 79 Boulcott Street
MOB – 101 Wakefield Street
Te Awa Library – 29 Brandon Street
Arapaki Library & Service Centre – 12 Manners Street
Te Pataka – 141 Johnsonvil e Road
Financial year July 2021 - June 2022
11,574 litres of milk were purchased.
Right of review
If you are not satisfied with the Council’s response, you may request the Office of the Ombudsman to
investigate the Council’s decision. Further information is available on the Ombudsman website,
www.ombudsman.parliament.nz.
Please note, we may proactively release our response to your request with your personal information
removed.
Thank you again for your request, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
Kind regards
Ollie Marchant
