Alliance exchange. (a) The Project Owner may, at any time prior to the Final Completion Date, direct the ALT to attend an alliance exchange to be attended by the ALT representatives of some or all of PTV's or the Project Owner's other alliances together with nominated invitees by the Project Owner, which may include alliance leadership team representatives from alliances sponsored by parties other than PTV.
(b) The Project Owner's expectation of the alliance exchange is to enable:
(1) alliance contracting best practice methodologies to be identified, shared and understood;
(2) sharing of expertise in respect of health and safety, including innovations and incident management methodologies;
(3) the Project Owner to be satisfied that the behaviours, standards and governance of its alliances are equal to other alliances developed or being developed across Australasia; and
(4) the Project Owner to benchmark the performance of its alliances against each other and against other alliances developed or being developed across Australasia to the extent that it is practicable to do so.
(c) The NOPs and PTV agree that they will attend the alliance exchange and participate in a manner consistent with the Alliance Principles so as to fully, frankly and honestly disclose all information or lessons learned relating to the Alliance or the Works other than that which the ALT determines is commercial-in-confidence or financially sensitive. Where the ALT determines, in consultation with the Project Owner, that information is commercial-in- confidence or financially sensitive the ALT shall determine an acceptable and appropriate manner to mask and/or protect the commercial-in-confidence or financially sensitive nature of the information but will still be obliged to share the information for the purposes of benchmarking the AOC performance of all aspects of the Alliance.
(d) Nothing in this clause 19.20 shall compel a Participant to make a disclosure of information where the ALT determines that to do so would, or could potentially, involve a breach of a Statutory Requirement, a breach of recognised best practice corporate governance guidelines or a breach of a Participant’s existing confidentiality obligations.
