Tranz Rail accept this recommendation.
This can be implemented forthwith, however there are a number of minor issues that will require further consideration. For example, small sites with only one or two operators may have difficulty meeting the requirements where more than one new employee is engaged at the one time. These issues will be worked through during the next month, at which time Tranz Rail will provide an update to the Transport Accident Investigation Commission.
