Dear Tina,

Thanks for the attached document.

However, I understand that PWC was selected following this response and have submitted a report for which TDC has paid for. It is this report I am requesting not this proposal.

Yours sincerely,

Andy Grove

Hi Andy

 

Your email dated 30 October 2017 has been processed under the Local
Government Official Information & Meetings Act 1987.

 

We have decided to refuse your request to provide the Pricewaterhouse
Cooper report on Architecture Services for three reasons:

 

1          Section 7(2)(b)(ii) of LGOIMA in that the release would likely
unreasonably to prejudice the commercial position of the person who
supplied the information

 

The report outlines PWC’s propriety methodology and is imbedded into the
report such that it would be difficult to release parts thereof.

 

2          Section 7(2)(j) which enables any local authority holding the
information to carry on, without prejudice or disadvantage, negotiations
(including commercial and industrial negotiations).

 

Council is currently undertaking a procurement process (Expression of
Interest) related to the findings captured within the report provided by
PWC and therefore the release of this report could compromise this
procurement process. 

 

3          Section 7(2)(c)(i)  relates to protection of information which
is subject to an obligation of confidence and would be likely to prejudice
the supply of information from the same source.

 

The report contains information obtained from third parties by PWC which
were given under an obligation of confidence and that information would
not be shared.

 

I am not aware of any considerations favouring disclosure in the public
interest, which would outweigh the need to withhold the information
requested.

 

If you believe your request for information has not been adequately dealt
with you may complain to the Office of the Ombudsman, and their contact
details are: Phone: 0800 802 602

Email: [1][email address]

Website: [2]www.ombudsman.govt.nz

 

Kind Regards

 

Tina
