So.....
New Zealand has recently taken steps to combat corruption. Last year Parliament passed the Organised Crime and Anti-corruption Legislation Bill in November 2015, which enabled New Zealand to ratify the United Nations Convention Against Corruption.But is ok to allow to allow Tony Hammond to be appointed as an investigator , against my many complaints about his conflicts of interest, where he misrepresents evidence, makes untrue affidavits and withholds over 100 forensic photos, all the evidence points to John Darnley, the same John Darnley who Tony Hammond gifted a full certifying gas license to.
John Darnley faces a charge for the explosion but it disappears before Darnley's hearing, all the evidence points to Darnley.
I end up being made the scape goat at a hearing overseen by Stephen Parker, Tony Hammond's colleague for many years and members of the same industry groups...Stephen shuts down the hearing just as we are pushing Hammond on the last of the charges, this is the only charge that I was found "guilty of" out of 44.....no one is held responsible for the explosion.
Nick Smith backs me until he gets his "good friend " on to the Board, this same guy goes in my local paper and further slates me after the hearing.....for an "offence" that Board decides to ignore just months later.
All of these people mentioned above are members of the same industry groups.
After my hearing I find that the Board knew about a gas cert issued for the last work done at the site of the explosion, the cert is missing a test for leaks....at the site of an explosion....claimed to have never been accepted/received by the Board...even though it appears on their FoxPro system.....
So they appoint as the investigator, Tony Hammond to investigate this explosion....the same guy who lobbied heavily for the self cert system, and the same tony who gifted Darnley the gas certing license......
Where's my dictionary........must look up what corruption means.......
I lost my trade and way to provide for my family, after warning for 6 years about Darnley....BEFORE THE EXPLOSION...
Until I clear my name, I can't have my life back......I am reminded about this every day, every day I am reminded I am new to a new industry, a trainee at 44 years of age.
