How to interpret this dataset

For a local address allocation or correction, contact the relevant city, district or unitary council. The council notifies LINZ; LINZ checks notified road names and property numbers against the addressing standard and updates the official national record. LINZ Data Service publishes NZ Addresses on its weekly cycle, so a local decision and its appearance in the published layer may happen at different times.
