About this episode

Tauranga City Council's chief executive Marty Grenfell has stepped down six weeks after a damning review found January's deadly landslide was preventable. In the report, retired High Court judge Paul Davison outlined a systemic failure where responsibility for the risk fell between different parts of the council and no one was ultimately managing it. But no one person was ever held responsible. Safety and employment lawyer Hazel Armstrong has sat on a number of boards, including the Ports of Auckland when they had to deal with workplace deaths. Armstrong spoke to John Campbell.
