What's my role on the panel?

As a member of Te Kōrari, you will receive invitations to complete short online surveys throughout the year. By answering our surveys you provide us with a ‘temperature check’ on topics and issues from our community.

  • You can choose which surveys to take, and there's no pressure to do anything
  • We aim to send between 4 and 8 surveys per year
  • Surveys will be short, mostly taking about 5-10 minutes to complete
  • Results are shared with you, to show how you made a difference. Feedback will mostly be used alongside other information to inform decisions. We will report on the outcomes of each survey
  • Reports will only show information in a way that does not identify you


You can opt out at any time.

  • Why did we set up Te Kōrari?

    We always try to find better ways of engaging with our community. Establishing a People’s Panel was identified as a possible opportunity for improvement, and our Councillors made it one of their commitments in the Long-Term Plan 2021-31.

    It's important to know that Te Kōrari surveys will not replace our formal consultations and we won’t be using the information we get from the surveys to make important decisions. With Te Kōrari, we may ask for feedback ahead of formal consultations to help build our understanding and increase the relevance of our engagements.

    The People’s Panel is only one way we engage with our communities. For complex or commercially sensitive issues, or for topics or issues that legally require us to consult with the community, we will continue using existing engagement methods. You can stay informed about opportunities to have your say by signing up to this site, without needing to sign up to Te Kōrari.
