10 CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS
Contingencies
As Powerco is an integrated business, this disclosure relates to the business as a whole.
The company has been named as a Second Defendant in a claim issued by Todd Energy Limited and Kiwi Co-operative Dairies Limited against Transpower Limited. The plaintiffs allege various breaches of the Commerce Act 1986 and claim various declarations and injunctions together with damages totaling $19.9 million. However, on 25 October 2001, Kiwi Co-operatives Dairies Limited discontinued its proceedings against Powerco. This leaves Todd Energy Limited as the only plaintiff in the proceedings. The claim is being defended by Powerco, which contends that it is not in breach of any of its obligations. No provision for the claim has been included in the financial statements.
