Pike River: Royal Commission of Inquiry

Last week the Government announced a Royal Commission into the Pike River mine tragedy.

Royal Commissions are reserved for matters of very significant public interest. The circumstances and cause of the deaths of 29 men in the Pike River mine need to be understood so we can do everything possible to make sure this tragedy isn’t repeated.

We want the answers their families, and all New Zealanders, need about what happened. The Royal Commission will start work as soon as is practical after the details of its make-up and its terms of reference are finalised.
