Construction Projects Queens Wharf Shed 10 - The replacement contractor (Macrennie) has been inducted and their safety plan reviewed. Site visits have recommenced and a safety audit was completed at the end of March. The audit included an inspection of site activity and documentation.

An audit closeout will be completed in the next week. Daldy and Halsey Street Works - Two audits have been completed and regular unprogrammed safety inspections are being completed on a weekly basis. Hawkins is maintaining a good level of documentation and the standard of safety on site has been acceptable. There have been some issues around the site tidiness on Halsey Street, which have now been addressed by the contractor. There has also been a focus on the public interface on the Halsey Street works and on the high risk deep excavation works in Daldy Street.

Safety Planning for Public Events There continues to be liaison with the event staff to provide guidance with hazards associated with the current events. A process for the review of risks associated with events is in place. This includes a regular meeting between event staff, operational staff, and the Health and Safety Consultant to complete a high level review of events to identify higher risk activities that may require a more detailed review. An event register has been established which records upcoming events and planned safety activities associated with that event, including safety plan reviews and audits of event setup. A template plan has been developed for small events and activations. This records basic information concerning health and safety aspects of a proposed event and provides event organisers hazard and emergency evacuation information associated with the Wynyard Quarter. We have established a liaison process with the Auckland Council Safety team to ensure that the review of event safety plans and site setup is efficient as possible. There are some issues around the monitoring of the events to ensure compliance with the approved safety plan. This is the responsibility of the permit issuing organisation (Auckland Council). This has been discussed with Auckland Council in the most recent liaison meeting. Agreed that Waterfront Auckland will raise any issues as they arise. 7
