Families of most of the 29 men who died following a
series of explosions at the Pike River Coal mine in November
2010 are continuing to demand a thorough underground
investigation of the disaster, in opposition to the Labour
Party-Greens government’s attempt to shut it
down.
After more than a decade, no one has been held
responsible for the disaster, despite a royal commission in

ahead of workers’ safety. The police, state regulators,
the courts and successive governments have shielded those
responsible from accountability.
