  • Quarterly Report 2019 / 2020 April - June QUARTERLY REPORT - Q1
    Quarterly Report 2019 / 2020 April - June QUARTERLY REPORT - Q1 On the cover: Kaumaatua take to the dance floor at the Matariki Ball held in July. 2 NGAA KUPU WHAKATAKI Ngaa Kupu Whakataki Executive Summary This is the quarter one report of the first year delivering on our Five Year Plan. This report to Te Whakakitenga o Waikato, presents progress updates on all our initiatives (see Ngaa Tohu tables), as well as key highlights shared across our Waikato-Tainui teams. From 1 April 2019 to 30 June 2019, we have seen good progress on projects within this first quarter. Changes to our reports By providing this report to Te Whakakitenga, we want to give more insight into the range of activities delivered under our Ngaa Tohu initiatives and the work that is done as part of our core day-to-day business. We’ve introduced links under each highlight to show where in our Five Year Plan specific initiatives and projects fit within our current workstreams. For greater transparency, we’ve also shared stories on externally funded projects and initiatives where we’ve partnered to deliver collective benefits to our iwi and wider community. Financial Summary Overall, we have achieved a surplus of $3.4m against a budget of $2.3m for Q1. The surplus has come from revenue generated faster than expenditure and is expected at this stage. Our Ngaa Tohu initiative budget and Grants budget together show an underspend of $0.3m but this is expected as projects begin to start during the first quarter. As always, we welcome your feedback on the structure and content of our reporting.

    ‘Shovel ready’ Infrastructure Projects: Project Information Form About this Project Information Form The Government is seeking to identify ‘shovel ready’ infrastructure projects from the Public and certain Private Infrastructure sector participants that have been impacted by COVID 19. Ministers have advised that they wish to understand the availability, benefits, geographical spread and scale of ‘shovel ready’ projects in New Zealand. These projects will be considered in the context of any potential Government response to support the construction industry, and to provide certainty on a pipeline of projects to be commenced or re- commenced, once the COVID 19 Response Level is suitable for construction to proceed. The Infrastructure Industry Reference Group, chaired by Mark Binns, is leading this work at the request of Ministers, and is supported by Crown Infrastructure Partners Limited (CIP). CIP is now seeking information using this Project Information Form from relevant industry participants for 1 projects/programmes that may be suitable for potential Government support.
