Removal of Ports of Auckland chairman is a positive move

The Mar­itime Union says the removal of Ports of Auck­land chair­man Gary Judd last week is for the best.

Mar­itime Union Local 13 Pres­i­dent Denis Carlisle says the removal of Ports of Auck­land chair­man Gary Judd by Auck­land Region­al Hold­ings could lead to a more pos­i­tive atmos­phere.

He says the Union has been con­cerned about the approach of Mr Judd and his lev­el of com­mit­ment to the Ports of Auck­land as a pub­lic asset owned by the peo­ple of Auck­land.
