Notes

  1. All years presented are as at 30 June.
  2. The information has been prepared on an accrual basis.
  3. Values have been rounded to the nearest thousand $(000).
  4. Figures may not add to the total due to rounding.
  5. All values are GST exclusive.
  6. The information presented is for the Council alone. It does not include data for any council-controlled organisation.
  7. Care should be taken when interpreting data over a time-series. Significant changes between years may, in part, be explained by changes to the Council's boundaries, population demographics, levels of service, governance structure and/or accounting methods.
  8. Statistics New Zealand collects this information from the annual Local Authority Census and from audited Annual Reports. While a validation process is applied by Statistics New Zealand to ensure consistency across these sources, variations in accounting treatment and the need for some estimation means that there can be differences with council reported data.
  9. The Department of Internal Affairs is not responsible for the currency or accuracy of this information. The Department of Internal Affairs disclaims and excludes all liability for any claim, loss, demand or damages of any kind whatsoever (including for negligence) arising out of, or in connection with, the use of this information.
