On Thursday, 17 June 2010, the Wellington City Council Strategy and Policy Committee met to finalise Council's submission on the Local Government Act 2002 Amendment Bill.
Radio New Zealand's response this morning was misleading to say the least in that it stated that Wellington City Council had backed down on water privatisation through public pressure. It was one of the more misleading news items that I have ever heard.
Council was not changing its policy but was making a weasel worded submission on the Local Government Act 2002 Amendment Bill.
REPORT 1
CAPACITY ( WATER MANAGEMENT FOR WCC AND HCC )
I put forward the following amendment
Recommend to Council that:
(a) it agree to consult under section 88 of the Local Government Act 2002 on a proposal to bring water management back in house and instead pursue joint venture with local authorities and Wellington Regional Council.
(b) it instruct officers to prepare the necessary consultation documentation for approval by the Strategy and Policy Committee
