PPSA AND CROSS HIRE
AGREEMENT
The new Cross Hire Agreement (CHA) is
now available from the HRIA webpage.
Members are advised to use the CHA
if they hire equipment to or from
rental companies to ensure they are
not exposed to loss of equipment to a
liquidator.
”Master Agreements, CHA and
guideance notes are all available
online at
Also get your legal advisor involved
and accountant to risk assess your
exposure,” HRIA CEO Phil Newby said.
“If nothing else, focus on the major
assets in your fleet and less than
reliable customers. Cover off the high
risk clients first. You can even get
companies to register the items for
you - for a fee of course. Phone the
National office on 02 9998 2255 if you
need help.
“The HRIA is continuing to battle to
have its case heard by Parliament.
The review of the Act takes place from
next year and we will be invited to
contribute.”
