2307 (2025). Arena Williams to the Minister for Rail: What passenger remuneration work, if any, is Interislander undertaking as a result of the Kaitaki’s disruptions in early 2023?

Rt Hon Winston Peters: The Kaitaki lost power in January 2023 and the cause of the incident was found to be within Interislander's control, and therefore those who incurred additional costs due to the disruption are entitled to compensation under the Consumer Guarantees Act. Interislander is proactively contacting customers to ensure they are aware.
