The NZ Road Transport and Logistics Industry Training Organisation has revised the unit standard listed above, which was registered in August 2000.

 

The review of this unit standard is planned to take place during 2008.

Comments by date                        July 2007 (unchanged)

 

Expiry date of new version of the unit standard                        December 2008 (unchanged)

 

Reason for the revision

 

The revision is to correct an error in Element 2 and its performance criterion.  The vehicle recovery driver must hold a D endorsement if towing a vehicle which is carrying dangerous goods.  Other formal requirements apply to the vehicle being towed, not to the driver.

 

Main changes resulting from the revision

 

·               element 2 has been deleted

·               performance criterion 2.1 has been corrected, and renumbered as performance criterion 1.5

·               references to Land Transport Safety Authority have been changed to Land Transport New Zealand.
