Reassess the desirability of permitting shunting staff to ride on the deck of certain wagons, and in particular for RCO's to control shunt movements from such a position.

Tranz Rail is reviewing Section 5 of the Rail Operating Code with the intention of rewording and reorganising all procedures relating to the movement of shunts (remote control or otherwise) in Terminals as we can see that the relevant information is contained in a number of sub-sections and would be better understood if all associated instructions were grouped together. This review is planned for completion during the first half of next year.
