Dear John
REQUEST FOR INFORMATION - LOCAL GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL INFORMATION AND
MEETINGS ACT 1987
We refer to your request dated 9 December 2014, which we received on 10 December 2014,
requesting the following:
1. any comparative analysis held by the Council of the computer systems currently used by
each council in the Wellington region including costs of provision of ICT services.
2. the estimated costs of merging existing computer systems in the various councils in the
Wellington region into a single computer system for use in an amalgamated council.
3. proposals, recommendations and reports provided to the regional CEO forum on shared
services for ICT and the minutes of the discussion and decisions made in response to those
proposals, recommendations and reports.
4. all reports, analysis and recommendations held by the Council on participation in shared
services for ICT with other councils in the Wellington region and the comparative advantages
and disadvantages identified for participation.
We do not hold this information and so your request is refused under section 17(g) of the
Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act. However, we are aware that
Wellington City Council was conducting some research into this, and pursuant to section 12 of
the Act we have transferred your request to Wellington City Council.
A copy of our letter transferring your request is attached for your information.
Yours sincerely
Rob van Endt
