Consultation
May 2004
In undertaking its business, Transpower consults stakeholders on a range of issues that affect the public.
When undertaking consultation, Transpower’s objectives are to:
- Inform the public of Transpower’s grid upgrade proposals by providing balanced and objective information that will assist people in understanding the issues, alternatives and proposed solutions
- Obtain public feedback to assist in the identification of potential environmental effects, and ways in which these can be remedied or mitigated
- Consider feedback in finalising its proposals.
To achieve its consultation objectives, Transpower will:
- Keep the public informed using "plain english" publications and material
- Provide an opportunity for people to give feedback
- Listen to and acknowledge comments
- Provide feedback on how public input influenced the decision.
