Complaint brought against engineer of CTV building

From Checkpoint, 6:08 pm on 4 December 2023

Twelve years after the CTV building collapsed during the Christchurch earthquake, families of the victims killed inside have told an engineering disciplinary hearing they want justice and accountability.

115 people died when the six-storey building came down in February 2011.

A complaint against an engineer whose firm designed the building is being heard by an Engineering New Zealand disciplinary committee.

Dr Alan Reay lost a High Court bid to stop the hearing.
