Middlemore maternity ward may close over seismic risks

From Morning Report, 7:10 am on 7 May 2018

The board has just received an earthquake assessment of the earthquake-prone Galbraith building. This comes six years after internal emails, now obtained by RNZ, talked of the building collapsing in a severe quake.
