Responses to several questions relating to the former Napier Prison and the involvement of Mana Ahuriri Trust.
The former Napier Prison is managed by LINZ in the Treaty Settlement Landbank.
A copy of a report drafted by Heritage New Zealand detailing the history of the site is provided.
Any information relating to further iwi history in the area, claim details, and future intentions with the property were refused as this is not information held by LINZ. However, to support research, links to two publicly available sources of information are provided in the response letter (The Ahururi Hapū Deed of Settlement and supporting documentation, and the Heritage New Zealand listing).
A summary of maintenance costs over the past five years, and information regarding planned maintenance for the site is also outlined in the response letter.
