Absolutely. Tap water in New Zealand is very clean. Some places may have a slightly mineral taste if they get theirs from underground but here in Auckland it is all rainwater collected in various dams on the city outskirts.
Here is a water quality report from last year. [http://www.watercare.co.nz/SiteCollectionDocuments/AllPDFs/Publications/2011-2012_Annual_Water_Quality_Report.pdf]
I can't tell much from it apart from an apparent lack of many things they test for. I do know there is a very low concentration of sulphates which means I need to add some to the water I use for brewing when I want to give that hop bitterness a boost.
