Appendix 3: Acknowledgements

The consultants thank officials from the Emissions Trading Group, especially Catherine Leining and Amy Kearse, for considerable assistance during the course of the project, which went well beyond the normal call of duty.

Below is a list of participants in a workshop held in Wellington on 25 January 2008 to collect information and views on the possible environmental effects of the ETS and closely related measures. (See Chapter 2 of this report for more detail regarding the workshop.). Some of these participants also provided additional material to the consultants after the workshop, for which we are most grateful.
