Around a quarter of respondents who do not have offices in their local area think the information should be held in a central place like Wellington. Local Authorities are significantly more likely than other respondents to want to have information sent to them. Those with no branch office are significantly more likely than other respondents to be happy to have information sent out to them or accessed by someone else. Those from offices which will shut are particularly likely not to want information sent out to them and those from Main Centres are particularly likely not to want to have someone else access the information for them. Ascertain the role of Search Agents.
