3 1. PREFACE The Board of Transpower is responsible for all aspects of the operation of the company. In order to allow the company to function effectively and efficiently on a day-to-day basis, the Board has delegated to the CEO and General Managers the authority to spend money and to carry out certain other tasks and functions within prescribed limits. Those delegations (sometimes referred to as standing delegations ) are set out in this Policy. 2. STRUCTURE Section 3 of this Policy sets out the principles that apply to the interpretation and application of the Financial Delegations and Non-financial Delegations in this Policy. The Financial Delegations are in Section 4. These are quantitative delegations under which the Chief Executive s or a General Manager s delegated authority is defined by reference to the monetary value of the relevant transaction or other matter (or may be unlimited). The Non-financial Delegations are in Section 5. These are qualitative delegations under which the Chief Executive or a General Manager has delegated authority to approve (or not) certain types of transaction or other matter regardless of its value. The Financial Delegations and Non-financial Delegations are referred to collectively as the Delegations. 3. PRINCIPLES 3.1 Scope and interpretation of the Delegations The Delegations contain the minimum authorisation levels for the transactions and other matters covered by them. Depending on the circumstances in which a matter arises it may be prudent for personnel to seek a higher level of authorisation. Likewise, it may be prudent for personnel to seek a high level of authorisation for a matter not explicitly covered by the Delegations. Personnel must exercise their judgement about whether it is appropriate in all the circumstances to go above and beyond the Delegations in seeking authority for a transaction or other matter. In exercising their judgement personnel should have particular regard to the potential reputational consequences of the transaction or other matter for Transpower or its shareholder. All authority delegated in the Delegations includes the authority to sign any document and do any other thing necessary or desirable to give effect to the delegated authority. In applying the Delegations a series of related transactions to which Transpower becomes committed at the same time must be treated as a single transaction. For example, a contract to buy three computers over three years is a single transaction, not three separate transactions. Transactions must be approved in accordance with all applicable Financial Delegations and Non-financial Delegations. 3.2 Limitations on the Delegations Any specific delegations from the Board (including in Board-approved Corporate Policies) and any powers of attorney granted by Transpower prevail over anything inconsistent in the Delegations. The current Transpower powers of attorney are listed on the Intranet at Delegated Authority Policy Transpower New Zealand Limited 3
4 The Board of a Transpower New Zealand Limited subsidiary may make its own delegations of authority provided they are not inconsistent with the Delegations. Expenditure in the form of personal expenses (e.g. accommodation, meals, and personal memberships) is governed by the Discretionary Expenditure, Gifts and Travel Policy. Treasury expenditure (e.g. interest payments, derivative settlements) is governed by the Treasury Policy. 3.3 Sub-delegation All authority delegated in the Delegations may be sub-delegated, including by subdelegates. However: o o any sub-delegation to a person who is not a Transpower employee must be approved by the CFO; and a delegate or sub-delegate should not sub-delegate his or her entire authority unless it is necessary to do so to cover an absence. As a general rule, for operating expenditure a maximum of 75% (by value) of a financial authority should be subdelegated on a standing basis. A non-financial authority should not be subdelegated on a standing basis at all. The current divisional standing sub-delegations are kept on the Intranet at Legal advice Subject to any express requirement in the Delegations, personnel must exercise their judgement about whether to seek internal legal advice on a contract before executing it for Transpower. In exercising their judgement personnel must take into account the face value and nature of the contract, including the risk it represents to Transpower. A contract that is on Transpower s standard terms is less likely to require legal input. A contract under which Transpower grants another party an indemnity is more likely to require legal input. 3.5 Compliance All employees are responsible for ensuring the Delegations and any sub-delegations under them are not exceeded. An employee s breach of delegated authority may be serious misconduct and result in disciplinary action. As well as having sufficient delegated authority to authorise a transaction, personnel must comply with all relevant Corporate Policies when they commit Transpower to the transaction. This includes the Procurement Policy and Code of Ethics and Conduct Policy. In the first instance, personnel should contact the Financial Controller if they are in any doubt as to the correct application of the Delegations. 3.6 Financial Delegations principles All authority above the CEO s delegation limits in the Financial Delegations is reserved to the Transpower Board. This includes authorising capital and operating expenditure outside the business plan total for the relevant area of responsibility. Except where stated otherwise in the Financial Delegations, and subject to the next principle, delegations of authority in the Financial Delegations to the GM (in area of 2016 Delegated Authority Policy Transpower New Zealand Limited 4
5 responsibility) are to the General Manager of the Transpower division that holds the budget or responsibility for the relevant transaction or project. Any delegation of authority to the CEO or CFO in the Financial Delegations is for all areas of responsibility. All delegation limits in the Financial Delegations are exclusive of GST and relate to the face value of the relevant transaction or project (in nominal dollars). Transactions and projects must not be arbitrarily segmented in order to stay below the delegation limits in the Financial Delegations. A framework contract should be authorised by a person who would have a sufficient delegation to authorise a typical transaction under it if the financial face value of the framework contract is less than that. 3.7 Non-financial Delegations principles All authority delegated in the Non-financial Delegations may be exercised by any Management level above the recorded delegation level. For example, all authority delegated to a GM may be exercised by the CEO (but is not required to be) Delegated Authority Policy Transpower New Zealand Limited 5
