Participants who state that they would like to be entered into the prize draw at the end of the survey will be included. The prize draw will be run, and the winners contacted on 9 November 2026. By entering the prize draw, entrants are deemed to have read, understood and accepted the following general terms and conditions.

Competitions and giveaways

• Competition and giveaway prizes are awarded to one entrant selected by random draw.
• Every entrant warrants that all information submitted is true, current and complete. Auckland Council reserves the right to disqualify any entrant who does not comply with these terms and conditions.
• Competitions and giveaways are open to Auckland Council Group staff, including council-controlled organisations (CCOs) and subsidiaries.
• A person can enter only once. Multiple entries will result in disqualification.
• This prize draw is conducted to support participation in the Electric Vehicle (EV) Survey, which collects data used to test council staff knowledge of EVs.

Entries, selection and prizes

• All reasonable attempts will be made to contact prize draw winners using details provided in the survey. Should those attempts fail, another winner will be drawn or selected.
• Prizes are not redeemable for cash, are not transferable to any other person, and cannot be sold or used in conjunction with any other offer or promotion.
• If a prize or part of a prize becomes unavailable for any reason, Auckland Council reserves the right to cancel or amend the prizes at its sole discretion, including providing the winner with a substitute prize, either in full or in part.
• Winners will be notified in advance if prizes are sent by courier. Couriers are instructed to have all prizes signed for on receipt. Failure to obtain a signature will result in the prize being returned to Auckland Council, and another winner may be drawn or selected.
