Holcim (New Zealand) Ltd. accepts the preliminary report and will agree and comply with the two safety recommendations contained in clause 4. We wish to comment further as follows:
Since the “Westport” incident at Onehunga on 21 November 2002, parts of the two safety recommendations from the TAIC preliminary report have already been put into place. The two safety recommendations will be implemented in full.
