Following this weeks wastewater spill in Wellington Gillian Blythe, Water NZ CEO, has emphasised the need for a reform of water infrastructure and oversight. 

"I think what's really critical is that we need to have regulatory oversight and we need to be able to highlight what it is that the the type of non-compliance is," she told Andrew Dickens. 

"Sometimes those non-compliances can be at the lower end, whether a report was filed at the right time, whether a sample was taken in the right time period, but some of them will be at the more complex end, and we need to make sure that we are focusing on that information."

Brenton Harrison Tarrant was jailed for life in August 2020, with no possibility of parole, after he plead guilty to the murder of 51 people and wounding 40 in the Christchurch terror attack.

Tarrant is now, five years later, attempting to overturn his conviction with claims he was not in a rational state when he plead guilty. 

Criminal defence lawyer Steve Cullen spoke to Andrew Dickens about the appeal saying, "It's a very difficult situation for all, but we have to let the wheels of justice grind on and let it be dealt with properly so that hopefully, whatever the outcome is, we'll get finality and closure this time."
