The families of those killed in the collapse of the CTV building in the February 2011 Canterbury earthquake are calling on the Government to review legislation around corporate manslaughter.
CTV families' spokesman Peter Brown told TVNZ this morning the group would support a law change resulting in a charge of corporate manslaughter in New Zealand.
Police yesterday revealed an expert engineer's firm had been brought in to review technical information in their investigation of the building collapse.
Of the 185 people killed in the disaster, 115 died in the Madras St office tower. No-one has been found criminally liable for the building's collapse, and the engineering review is part of an ongoing assessment by police to determine whether a criminal investigation into the collapse of the six-storey building should be undertaken.
