    Manawatu Region Sector Profiles 2010: Logistics and Supply Chain Providing you with a better understanding of the different components of the Manawatu Region economy and the contribution each sector makes to the demographic and economic growth of the region. Images below are courtesy of KiwiRail and NZ Post The sector profiles for the Manawatu have been developed by the Palmerston North City Council to provide a better understanding of the different components of the Manawatu economy and the contribution each sector makes to the demographic and economic growth of the region. Even within the broad industrial sectors of the Australian and New Zealand Standard Industrial Classification (ANZSIC) 2006 there can be a diverse range of activities undertaken and it is useful to understand which sectors are growing and are likely to grow in the future and their overall contribution to jobs and incomes in the region. The profiles are drawn primarily from Statistics New Zealand data. Background material on the logistics sectors was drawn from the book The Handbook of Logistics and Distribution Management (3rd edition) by Alan Rushton, Phil Croucher and Peter Baker. Valuable advice was also given by Walter Glass, Corporate Logistics 2010 Ltd.

  • Amendments to Civil Aviation Rule Part 121: Air Operations (Large Aeroplanes) Agency Disclosure Statement
    Regulatory Impact Statement for Amendments to Civil Aviation Rule Part 121: Air Operations (Large Aeroplanes) Agency disclosure statement 1. This Regulatory Impact Statement (RIS) has been prepared by the Ministry of Transport with assistance from the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). It provides an analysis of options to: improve the safety of large aeroplane operations by ensuring flight crew assignment, training and competency requirements align with International Civil Aviation Organization standards (ICAO); ensure a clearer and more transparent application of Part 121 by reducing or removing unnecessarily restrictive rule requirements which, in some cases has forced industry to incur needless compliance costs. 2. There is some uncertainty concerning the analysis because New Zealand has not experienced a significant accident during training or competency assessment in large aeroplanes since 19661. Parts of the regulatory analysis are therefore based on international accident data which has identified human factors as a significant safety risk.2 3. The regulatory proposal will impose compliance costs on some operators of large sized aeroplanes. However, the proposed amendment should reduce costs to operators by removing the need to seek exemptions and providing increased flexibility to achieve compliance. Our assumption is that the proposed rule amendments will result in reduced safety risks and improved safety outcomes for New Zealand‘s travelling public. Industry unanimously support the preferred option to amend Part 121. 4. The proposal will not impair private property rights, market competition, or the incentives on businesses to innovate and invest, or override any of the fundamental common law principles. The proposal is consistent with our commitments in the Government statement Better Regulation, Less Regulation.

The strategy, dubbed the “Flightpath for Growth” and unveiled in late March, is the culmination of an extensive review process initiated by chief executive Simon Moutter and his new leadership team. The plan recognises that the world has changed significantly over the past year and the operating environment for the airport is now a lot tougher than it has been for many years. “We can no longer rely on relentless increases in passenger volumes to drive the growth we’ve enjoyed over the previous decade. Now, passenger numbers are falling, our airline partners are hurting and we are sharing More resources will be applied to route development, that pain along with everyone else in the travel and tourism tourism promotion and air cargo services as well.
