An opinion new health and safety regulatory reforms is a solution to a problem that doesn't exist. The Government's change makes clear landowners won't be responsible if people are injured on their property, while doing recreational activities. Fault will lie with the organisations running them. It used the prosecution of the company that grants access to White Island after it erupted as one reason for the change. Health and Safety Lawyer Grant Nicholson told Mike Hosking that's the only example of the law getting muddy. He says ultimately the court did its job —with the company later acquitted— and the law worked as intended. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I am thrilled for the White Island company that had their conviction quashed on appeal on Friday. White Island and its judicial process has worried me from the get go. Work and Safety appeared to panic in their response to the disaster. Make no mistake, what happened at the island was a disaster and a tragedy. But it was a natural disaster and tragedy, and what level of legal recompense was required was questionable from the start. But the approach that Work and Safety took appeared to be a panic-driven “scatter gun” affair, whereby all-and-sundry faced a barrage of charges in the hope some of the judicial mud would stick. The brothers who owned the island faced a couple of charges. One was dropped but they were found guilty on the other. They appealed it and have had it, quite rightly, turned over. The company simply gave licences to conduct tours. They didn't per se "manage" anything and therefore could not be held accountable for what others directly did. I still believe a lot of the other charges were overreach, given the nature of a volcano. Adventure tourism, by its nature, carries risk. A live volcano, by its nature, carries risk. At some point the people who buy into that, as in the visitors, must take some level of responsibility. From what I could see or have read about no one acted recklessly, they weren't crazy and there was no daredevil behaviour involved. It was an unforeseen disaster. As the judge pointed out, given the island company simply handed out licences, what was there to manage? He also pointed out, quite rightly as far as I can see, that we are dealing with bare ground, so there's not a lot to manage there. Many of those charged pled guilty early on. I'm convinced they did it not because they believed they were, but because it was easy, whether on legal advice or not to simply cave and pay. This quashing is proof that it didn't need to be that way. All the charges that were dropped is proof it didn't need to be this way. So how much damage, stress, money, energy and failed business do we have from an agency that, it looks increasingly likely, set about things in a very haphazard, if not dangerous, way. And yet they're in no way being held to any level of account. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Some questions around yesterday's White Island verdict:  Was justice done? Was justice seen to be done?  Did a lot of people needlessly get dragged before the court for no good reason?  Did those who had their charges dismissed get any compensation for lost time and energy on a case for them that went nowhere?  Is it fair that the law allows a Government agency to simply machine-gun a series of charges about the place, in the hope a few will stick? Do you machine-gun charge, hoping some will take the path of least resistance and simply plead guilty?  Did some of those that pled guilty do so for essentially the wrong reasons and, if so, do they now regret that?  Does the landing of a single guilty verdict from all those charges justify the approach from WorkSafe?  Given what the judge said about WorkSafe and their reportage of operations on the island, are they potentially as culpable as anyone else? And if they are, where are the charges against them?  Where is any accountability from them at all?  Why do we have a system whereby you get charged and then have those charges dismissed and you can essentially do nothing about it?  Where is WorkSafe and why don't they front to defend their actions? Given that, is there a gross unfairness in the balance of power in matters such as this?  How many of the WorkSafe charges, or indeed the WorkSafe approach to all of this, was a butt covering exercise designed to make them look better than they clearly are?    Accepting this was a tragedy and lives were changed forever, how much of their approach was about looking like they cared and were out to get some people, even if those people were not in any way culpable?  As tragic as the circumstances turned out to be, does some level of responsibility lie with individuals who took part in a tourist exercise involving a live volcano and there fore a level of risk was entered into?  Is the reality not that if you are dealing with nature and you can't control, or tame nature, it is at all times beyond your control and therefore risk is involved and people buy into that risk?  The fact one charge, one contested charge of all the charges, actually stuck - what does that change?  Was justice done?  Was justice seen to be done?  Or are the questions just asked an indication of a sloppy Government department who are as guilty, if not more so, than anyone else who appeared in that court? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A law expert says the Whakaari White Island trial was a messy process.   The island's owner, Whakaari Management Limited, has been found guilty on one health and safety charge brought by WorkSafe.   WorkSafe charged 13 parties in 2020; six pleaded guilty ahead of the trial and another six had charges dismissed.  Law expert Chris Gallavin told Mike Hosking that not having corporate manslaughter in our legislation, is a glaring hole.   He says it would cover a lot of people dying at work, and the members of the public who died in this kind of situation.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Two booking agents accused of health and safety failings in the Whakaari/White Island trial have had the charges against them dismissed, leaving Whakaari Management Limited as the only defendant.

Charges against two booking agents accused of health and safety failings in the Whakaari / White Island trial have been dismissed. The companies, ID Tours and Tauranga Tourism Services, had been accused of not providing detailed, up to date health and safety information about tours to Whakaari, to cruise liner Royal Caribbean. The Judge, Evangelos Thomas, says the two companies were only liable for their own workers and workplaces. Neither company operated on Whakaari. Simon Schofield from Auckland University's faculty of law says because the tourist operators didn't have any workers on the island, it wasn't a workplace, the judge ruled that therefore they shouldn't be liable. Schofield spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

It's three and a half years since the eruption, which killed 22 people and injured 25 others. Lawyers say inadequate infrastructure on the island made survival and recovery of some more difficult. A warning, some parts of this story may be distressing. Emma Stanford has been at the Auckland District Court.

"Survivors' and rescuers' accounts and minute-by-minute footage fuel this gripping documentary about the deadly 2019 volcanic eruption in New Zealand."-NetflixCam covers the fatal eruption of the New Zealand White Island volcano on December 9, 2019. Forty-seven adventurous souls said yes to a once in a lifetime opportunity to hike to the crater of a beautiful volcano in a remote paradise. What they didn't know is that they were hiking straight into the belly of the beast – an active volcano that had just been elevated in eruption risk. But no one told the tourists of the extra risk that they'd be taking that day, and only 25 of them would survive to tell the horrific tale.-If you'd just like to support your gals and the show, you can head over to patreon.com/TSFU and join for as little as $5 a month!
