Re-appointment to QAC

Queenstown Airport Corporation director Bill Walker has been reappointed to the board by the Queenstown Lakes District Council, QLDC chief executive Duncan Field said.


“I am delighted to announce that Mr Walker was unanimously re-appointed to the position. There is no question that Mr Walker has been a dedicated and hard-working member of a very successful board,” Mr Field said.


Mr Walker had been appointed for a further two years in keeping with the agreed timeframes introduced in 2006, whereby the standard term of a director was increased from three to four years. Directors could be elected for two terms.


“In this case it allows for an extremely experienced director to continue serving the community as the district continues to grow,” Mr Field said.


The two year period would run through until July 2009.
