Catering for Governing Body
Damian Light made this Official Information request to Auckland Council
This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Damian Light to read a recent response and update the status.
From: Damian Light
Dear Auckland Council,
I understand that some of the Governing Body meetings (of the whole, committees and sub-committees) provide meals for elected members.
1) I would like to know the costs (total annual cost and average per meeting), separated by Committee. While I would prefer actual costs, budgeted costs for the current financial year are acceptable.
2) I would also like to know what the process is for requesting catering, including confirmation of who requested it for each Committee that is catered. If there is a copy of the request to cater and the advice received to support it, I would like this also.
Yours faithfully,
Damian Light
