15) Transpower Dispute
During the year ended 31 March 2001 Transpower invoiced the Company $1,935,648 (plus GST) in respect of their costs to date in respect to the formerly proposed Frasertown - Gisborne transmission line. The Directors, having sought legal advice, disputed that the Company is liable for these costs. Both parties agreed to the appointment of mediator and a mediation hearing was held in July 2002. The outcome of the mediation resulted in an agreed settlement to avoid further costly litigation. Provision has been made in the Financial Statements for an estimation of this amount plus legal costs.
16) Contingent Liability
At 31 March 2002, the Company has a contingent liability of $98,549 (2001 $112,299) in respect of Subdivision Developers' Rebates on sections that are reticulated but undeveloped. The individual liabilities will be brought to charge as each section is developed and line charges become payable.
