What historic annual reports provide
These historic annual reports set out how we contributed to the Auckland Plan outcomes.
They explain:
- what we achieved each year
- what we delivered against the 10-year budget (long-term plan) and annual budget (annual plan), or the equivalent documents of the legacy (previous) council organisations.
The annual reports since 2010 include information from our
council-controlled organisations (CCOs) and
Port of Auckland, each of which produce their own annual reports.
Historic annual reports for our CCOs and Port of Auckland are available on their websites.
