6012 (2026). Tangi Utikere to the Minister of Local Government: What is the estimated dollar value of depreciation not planned to be recovered over the life of accepted Water Services Delivery Plans, broken down by council and service?

Hon Simon Watts: Corrected reply: I refer the member to the response in written question 5995 (2026). I am advised that compiling and collating the information at the level of specificity requested in the members question beyond what is already publicly available would require considerable time and resources, and I do not consider this to be in the public interest.
