Radio New Zealand, 22 February, 2022
On the 11th anniversary of the Christchurch earthquake, a lawyer dealing with outstanding insurance claims says the city still has a long way to go.
A 6.3 magnitude earthquake struck the Canterbury region at 12.51pm on 22 February in 2011, killing 185 people.
More than half a million claims have been made with the Earthquake Commission (EQC) and private insurers as a result, and many homeowners are still wrestling to work through unsettled claims.
