Air N.Z. board cut
PA Wellington 'Mr J. D. Dalgety will be reappointed to the board of Air New Zealand for a further three-year term, the Minister of Transport, Mr Gain has announced. But the vacancy created when the term expires on September 30 of another board member, Mr Doug Patterson, will not be filled. Mr Gair said that the opportunity was being taken to reduce the size of the board to eight directors. At the time of the merger a larger board than was
really necessary had been accepted as an appropriate step for that time but not necessarily as appropriate for the longer term. The final size of the board and whether it would be set at eight or any other number could be reviewed, he said. "Mr Patterson served on the board of the National Airways Corporation from 1973 until 1978 and since then on the board of Air New Zealand. The Government records its gratitude for his contribution during a time of many challenges in the aviation industry,” said Mr Gain
