There were no reports in 2021 and 2023.

With regards bullet point 2, It has been recently noted that this lease is registered and is therefore publicly available through Land Information NZ (LINZ).

You can request a copy of the lease (L 7031377.2 Lease) (linz.govt.nz)

As you are able to access this information yourself, I am declining your request under section 17(d) of the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act ‘that the information is publicly available’.
