Explanatory note
This note is not part of the regulations, but is intended to indicate their general effect.
These regulations, which come into force on 1 August 2017, amend the Kiwifruit Export Regulations 1999.
The main changes are as follows:
regulation 4 amends regulation 2 to expand the definition of the core business of Zespri Group Limited (ZGL). ZGL’s core business now includes the marketing of New Zealand-grown kiwifruit, market development for New Zealand-grown kiwifruit, and research and development relating to kiwifruit:
regulation 8 inserts new regulation 10A (the prior notice rule). That regulation requires ZGL to inform the New Zealand Kiwifruit Board (the Board) before carrying out activities that are not its core business but do support the core business:
regulation 9 replaces the non-diversification rule in regulation 11. Under the new rule ZGL must not carry out activities that do not support the core business unless all producers have been informed, at least 75% of producers have agreed by vote (being producers who produced at least 75% of the kiwifruit supplied to ZGL by those who voted), and ZGL has minimised the risks for the producers who have not agreed:
regulation 10 replaces the requirements relating to ZGL’s corporate form in regulation 22. Regulation 22 currently prevents ZGL from having rules about maximum shareholding. New regulation 22 allows for rules about maximum shareholding if they are based on the amount of kiwifruit supplied to ZGL, they apply only to producers, and the additional resolution procedure in new regulation 23A is complied with:
regulation 11 amends regulation 23, which relates to ZGL’s constitution. The new regulation now allows the rights in section 36(1)(b) of the Companies Act 1993 to be negated or altered (only in so far as they apply to shareholders who are not producers). The rights in section 36(1)(b) are the rights to an equal share in dividends. This alteration also requires the additional resolution procedure in new regulation 23A to be complied with:
regulation 12 inserts new regulation 23A to provide for this resolution procedure. Under this procedure all shareholders are entitled to vote and each share entitles the shareholder to one vote. The resolution must be passed by a majority of 75% of the votes of all shareholders and of each interest group:
regulation 15 inserts new requirements for a statement of intent for the Board in new regulations 33A to 33C:
regulation 17 replaces regulation 36 (which relates to the membership of the Board). The Board will now have 6 members rather than 5. Three members will continue to be elected by producers. Two members will be appointed by the Minister (rather than 1 member being appointed by New Zealand Kiwifruit Growers Incorporated). The Minister will appoint the chairperson (rather than the chairperson being appointed by the other members):
regulation 17 also inserts new regulation 36A, which prevents a person from holding office as a member of the Board and as a director of ZGL at the same time and enables the Minister to remove a member from office for just cause:
regulation 19 amends regulation 39. Regulation 39 currently provides for the Board to be funded on a cost recovery basis. The amendments add principles that the Board must take into account when deciding the kind and level of charges:
regulation 20 replaces regulation 40 to update requirements relating to the Board’s financial statements.
The Schedule sets out detailed transitional provisions arising from the changes made by these regulations.
