Air NZ bosses face select committee over Saudi military deal

From Checkpoint, 5:20 pm on 11 February 2021

Air New Zealand has issued another apology over the Royal Saudi Navy contract - this time to MPs.

The national carrier has been under fire after it admitted this week its gas turbines unit had been working on engines for the Saudi navy.

Chief executive Greg Foran and board chair Dame Therese Walsh fronted to a Parliamentary committee on Thursday morning, but while the apologies were coming thick and fast, they were less forthcoming with answers to the many questions that remain.
