questioned given the falling attendances at sporting events (especially the smaller non-international style events). It was noted that many attendances for Mitre 10 Cup rugby games were in the 4,000 to 6,000 range. The stands only offer 8,000 seats. The remainder of the capacity is taken up by the terrace seating and general admittance. Even at the smaller events, there is still a significant demand for undercover seating that is out of the weather and side-on to the ground. The major sports noted

Council staff familiar with the plan to examine the clarity of the policies and the frequency that the various policies had been considered in consent officer’s reports (as an indication of how frequently those policies were used in decision making). Efficiency is a measure of the benefit of a policy relative to its cost. The efficiency of the RCP was examined by looking at costs that fall on the regional council (plan administration costs and ongoing policy development or state of environment
had experienced a natural rock fall event and was buried by large boulders and other debris, which caused the decline in richness and diversity observed in the previous monitoring period. However, the 2023 data shows that this site experienced an increase in these parameters from the previous year, which suggests the local intertidal community is beginning to recover. Overall, these results indicate that the marine outfall discharge was not having detectable adverse effects on nearby
