Subject: Official Information request - Statistics of Complaints against
elected members

 

Dear Auckland Council,

Please advise any statistics you hold on the number of complaints received
about the conduct of elected members. Please provide the information on an
annual basis for as many years as you hold the data (since 2010).

For each year please show how many complaints were lodged by members and
how many by members of the public and how many were lodged by staff. For
each category please indicate how many were found in favour of the
complainant and how many were dismissed, and separately how many were
decided after being referred to an Independent Commissioner for
consideration and in those cases how many were found in favour of the
complainant and how many were dismissed.

Please advise if there have been since 2010 any cases where action was
taken against an elected member as a result of any complaint found in
favour of the complainant. If so please advise what action was taken (no
personal details to be provided).

Thank you for your attention

Kind Regards,

William Foster
