Answer

Ferry Holdings is the delivery entity of a complex ferry procurement and infrastructure building project, involving a vast quantity of agreements. It is not possible within the timeframes of a WPQ to provide this level of detail. The Member is welcome to seek such a list of documents from Ferry Holdings under the Official Information Act (OIA). Ferry Holdings will respond in accordance with the provisions of the OIA.
