Abstract: Many Local Authorities in New Zealand are currently planning to introduce new rates on the value of the distribution networks that utility companies operate within their jurisdiction. In this article Neil Quigley draws on research undertaken with Lewis Evans to argue that rates based on value of utility company distribution networks reduce economic efficiency and are inconsistent with a range of government policy objectives.
