Number and Title of Specification

DZ 5829 Part 1. Code of practice for the safe design, construction and use of motor powered pleasure boats. ($12.32 incl. $1.12 GST)

As a result of growing concern at the potential for boating accidents, the New Zealand Water Safety Council initiated the preparation of these guidelines, supported by the Accident Compensation Corporation and the Ministry of Transport.

The draft code applies to pleasure boats up to 8.0 m in length, having engines as their primary source of power. It applies to all types of materials and forms of construction, and to both outboard and inboard installations. It does not apply to sailing yachts with auxiliary engines or to boats used for commercial purposes and subject to survey, or boats used exclusively for racing.

The draft includes requirements for maximum load, persons and power capacities, and for internal buoyancy, stability and testing. It also covers structural requirements, engine and propulsion system, fuel system, electrical, instruments, ventilation, gas installations, and fire protection. Recommendations regarding safety equipment (operational) and maintenance practices are given in Appendices G and H.

The draft is being issued in two parts. Part 2 will cover inflatable pleasure boats.

The Standards Act 1965—Draft New Zealand Standard Specification Available for Comment

Number and Title of Specification

DZ 5600 Quality Assurance program. ($9.90 includes $0.90 GST) (Based on CAN 3-Z299:Parts 1–4)

This draft Standard has been prepared at the request of the New Zealand Organisation for Quality Assurance which considered there was a need to provide clear guidance on Quality Assurance/Management Standards and a basis for training in New Zealand.

The specific objectives of the Standard are:

(a) to provide a customer with the assurance that a quality product or service will be supplied; and

(b) for the supplier to assume responsibility for achieving the required quality and then demonstrating that it has been provided

and to reduce the numerous and seemingly different quality assurance program standards applied to many products or services. The premise was adopted that although there may be minor variations in individual quality assurance programs, standard fundamental practices can be established for each quality element. The requirements are neither product nor service oriented and are appropriate for purchasing products or services in many industries and businesses.

All persons who may be affected by this publication and who desire to comment thereon, may obtain copies from the Standards Association of New Zealand, Wellington Trade Centre, 181–187 Victoria Street (or Private Bag), Wellington.

The closing date for the receipt of comment is 30 March 1987.
