Submission No. 31 Norfolk Island Economy Date: 03/06/14
Submission No. 31 Norfolk Island Economy Date: 03/06/14 ACN 169 144 129 15 May 2014 Joint Standing Committee on the National Capital and External Territories Economic Development on Norfolk Island. Reply to questions on Notice from Ms Brodtmann Ms BRODTMANN: I have a number of questions. The first is to your background. I understand that you managed the airline contract or have been involved in the airline contract in the past. Except for the current contact between the Commonwealth and Air New Zealand, there has not been an airline contact in the past. However, if you are referring to the Norfolk Island Governments failed airline, Norfolk Air which cost the community and the Commonwealth $33 million dollars, I had no involvement. I believe the airline you are referring to was Norfolk Jet Express. Norfolk Jet Express was started by me at a time when no other air carrier was willing to fly to Norfolk Island. There was no contract, no subsidy, and no support from the Norfolk Island Government and no support from the Commonwealth. The background and history to Norfolk Jet Express is as follows. In 1996, Ansett Airlines announced that it was going to withdraw from services to Norfolk Island. This withdrawal would be effective by the end of June 1997, regardless of whether another carrier was found to replace it. By early 1997, the Norfolk Island Government had not found any carrier willing to fly to Norfolk Island, this included both Qantas and Air New Zealand. In early 1997 and with no other carriers interested in flying to Norfolk Island, I announced the creation of Norfolk Jet Express and that I would provide an air service to the Island. -
