We are an Events Centre for Manukau

Chairman of Counties Manukau Pacific Trust

Counties Manukau Pacific Trust was formed in July 2000 after marketing and feasibility studies, commissioned by business and community leaders, identified the need for a facility such as TelstraClear Pacific.

Trustees have been appointed in accordance with the Trust deed. We appointed Richard Jeffery as CEO Counties Manukau Pacific Trust in July 2000. He has 19 years experience nationally and internationally in venue management, hospitality and tourism, previously working as Director of Theatre and Convention Services at The Edge. (The Edge encompasses the Auckland Town Hall, Aotea Centre and The Civic).

The project has been professionally designed and costs have been constantly reviewed. We have raised in excess of $49 million dollars.

TelstraClear Pacific is a well utilised community asset. It is very important to come together as a whole community to celebrate our successes and move forward together. Manukau has many such successes to share; TelstraClear Pacific  gives us the heart needed to achieve this on one of the highest profile sites in New Zealand.

We would like to thank Manukau City Council for their tremendous support and my personal thanks to all Councilors, Directors and Officers for working in partnership with the Trust.

The community of Counties Manukau will appreciate your support for TelstraClear Pacific and we look forward to your involvement.

Sir Noel Robinson KNZM
