Conflict of Interest
Wellington City (Brooklyn) Rate Payer made this Official Information request to Wellington Regional Council
This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Wellington City (Brooklyn) Rate Payer to read a recent response and update the status.
From: Wellington City (Brooklyn) Rate Payer
To whom it may concern,
I am requesting copies of, or a summary of, the conflict of interest statements submitted by the following employees and contractors of Wellington City Council (WCC) and Greater Wellington Regional Council (GWRC).
Specifically, I am seeking records for the years they were employed or contracted, where their conflict of interest statements indicate or do not indicate they are members of the Wellington Natural Heritage Trust (WNHT) and/or noted any proposed or actual recusals from activities - especially rural policy advice, design, leading, propagating, or requests lodged for funding of these and other trusts to which they are trustees/board members.
Please provide this information for as many years as records are available. The individuals of interest:
Chris Cosslett
Tim Park
Clive Antsey
Chris Horne
Colin Ryder
For expediency's sake, we note that
- LGOIMA permits ask about govt organisations and contractors,
- the trusts the individuals belong to are already published either on professional online resumes and/or the trusts themselves,
- the requests for funding for the WHNT from the environmental grant funds, and by whom, are published on WCC's websites,
- documents containing the names of individuals on the list and their role within the development of district planning as they were presented to commissioners are also published by WCC
therefore conclude that the totality of the information requested is already either in the public domain and not private information or within your remit to make available.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Wellington City (Brooklyn) Rate Payer
