The effect of the exemption is that the exempt adventure activity operators may provide adventure activities to participants without being registered to provide them under the Regulations. For each exempt adventure activity operator, this exemption is conditional on the Registrar receiving a safety audit certificate from a recognised safety auditor certifying that the operator meets the requirements of the Safety Audit Standard for Adventure Activities - Requirements for a safety audit of operators (March 2013) no later than 5.00pm on 1 December 2014. If this condition is not met in respect of an exempt adventure activity operator, this exemption will cease to have effect and the relevant operator will need to cease providing adventure activities from that date until the operator is registered. To avoid doubt, adventure activity operators not covered by this exemption must be registered by 1 November 2014 or, on and from 1 November 2014, cease providing adventure activities until they are registered to do so. Dated at Wellington this 7th day of October 2014. GORDON MACDONALD, Chief Executive, WorkSafe New Zealand.
