Dear Mr Thomas
Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987
Re: Methamphetamine related cleansing orders
I refer to your email, which we received on 10 August 2015, requesting information about the
number of Cleansing Orders issued related to methamphetamine contamination from 2012
to 2015.
Council databases for the Central, Southern and Western areas of Auckland show the
following information:
Year
Number of Methamphetamine related
Cleansing Orders
2012
30
2013
24
2014
20
2015
9
Please note that the above information does not include data from the Northern Area
(encompassing the areas of the former North Shore City Council and Rodney District
Council) as we are unable to extract this information from the legacy systems. For these
areas, Cleansing Orders are placed on the property files for affected properties, but are not
recorded centrally and in order to calculate the number of EHO’s for this area would require
a review of all property files. Because of the large amount of research that would be
required, we need to refuse the request as it relates to these areas under s17(f) of the Act.
Should you believe Auckland Council has not responded appropriately to your request, you
have the right to apply to the Ombudsmen to seek a review of the decision.
If you have any further queries please contact me on 09 890 8127, quoting Official
Information Request No. 9000137077.
Yours sincerely
