White Island: Company found guilty over NZ volcano disaster
By Nicholas YongBBC News, Singapore
A company in New Zealand has been found guilty of not " minimising risk" to 22 people who died in the 2019 White Island volcano disaster.
Judge Evangelos Thomas criticised what he referred to as " astonishing failures" on the part of Whakaari Management.
Whakaari Management licenses tours to White Island .
The case is the largest action of its kind brought by New Zealand 's regulator, Worksafe NZ.
The Company faces up to NZ$1. 5m ($928,000; £724,000) in fines.
Thirteen parties were charged over the disaster - Six had pleaded guilty while Six more had their charges dismissed.
The Judge also dismissed a second charge against The Company relating to the safety of its own workers.
James, Andrew and Peter Buttle, who own The Company , inherited The Volcano and licenced other businesses to run tours.
The Judge said Whakaari Management " managed and controlled" the active volcano.
White Island - also known by its Maori name of Whakaari - had been erupting in some form since 2011.
When it erupted on 9 December 2019, almost half of the 47 people present on White Island were killed, including 17 from Australia, three from the US, and two from New Zealand . Another 25 people were injured, many suffering extensive burns.
Tourists have not returned to White Island since the disaster.
