Vince Cocurullo: Whangarei District Mayor on the consequences of the significant power outage in Northland
The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Thursdays
Someone will be paying the price for last week's power outage in Northland. A pylon toppled over on Thursday after too many nuts were removed from the legs, letting it tip over. Transpower says it's an inconceivable and unprecedented situation, and consumers can apply for compensation through their retailer. Whangarei District Mayor Vince Cocurullo told Mike Hosking that they will need to wait until the incident is fully looked into. He says they need to know who's liable for the insurance claims.
