Hawke s Bay s Civil Defence says it will review its communication with the public during Friday s three large earthquakes - and subsequent red-zone tsunami evacuation.
But it also says in a significant disaster, personal responsibility is important, and it s a timely reminder that those in a tsunami zone need to inform and prepare themselves for a big event.
