Objection (Povey)
Carried
Secretarial Note: After discussion, recommendation 3 was added,
this was in the original report but not included in the agenda.
Secretarial Note: Request from Malcolm Walsh to minute the
following:
“Kaipara
Uri reps have considered the recommendations of the independent adviser on
remuneration and acknowledge they will address some of the time and
material costs of the representatives in the interim. However we think the
criteria used for evaluation is more suited to policy and regulatory bodies
at a central government level and does not assess considerable operational,
financial and reputational risk and time that service on this Joint committee
with this set of functions entails. As such we request that further
consideration be given in March/April to more appropriate criteria and
comparisons with more relevant organisations. Once this has been assessed we
can collectively determine what that might mean for retrospective as well as
ongoing remuneration of Uri representatives.”
