Only one elected official responded.
Councillor Pauls replied as follows:
Dear Hamiltonian,
Councillors asked the City to report on the findings which were disclosed at an in-camera meeting on Dec 3, 2025. The protocol as it exists, is that in-camera discussions are highly confidential, which means that I’m not at liberty to discuss anything that happens in-camera.
Consultation with the City Solicitor and City Manager has confirmed the following:
A report related to the costs associated with the HOWEA Labour Disruption was presented and discussed in-camera at the General Issues Committee on December 3, 2025.
The information contained in this report is confidential, in accordance with the labour relations exemption in the Municipal Act.
Accordingly, the City is unable to provide information related to the costs with respect to the recent labour disruption.
Sincerely,
Councillor Esther Pauls
We would like to thank Clr. Pauls for her reply and engaging with Hamiltonians via The Hamiltonian.
