Answer

The Crown records costs incurred on business cases, design, and preparatory work for these projects, but such costs are unlikely to be able to be disaggregated by the procurement model. Budget funding towards the delivery of the Rotorua High and District Court and Māori Land Court buildings, but not towards the Waitākere courthouse, was only recently announced and, as such, these costs continued to be incurred. Costs for the design and preparatory work for Phase 1 of the Christchurch Men’s Prison Redevelopment Programme and Section 1 (Warkworth to Te Hana) of the Northland Corridor also continue to be incurred.
