TONIGHT ` QUEENSLAND POLICE DELAY A MEMORIAL REOPENING OF THE DREAMWORLD THEME PARK SO THEY CAN COMPLETE AN INVESTIGATION INTO FOUR DEATHS ON ONE OF THE RIDES. 60-ODD YEARS OF THE SOUNDTRACK OF NZ LIVES. WE TURN UP THE VOLUME ON A NEW EXHIBITION. DUE TO THE LIVE NATURE OF TONIGHT, WE APOLOGISE FOR THE LACK OF CAPTIONS FOR SOME ITEMS. FIRST TONIGHT, A PLANNED MEMORIAL RE-OPENING FIRST TONIGHT, A PLANNED MEMORIAL RE-OPENING OF THE DREAMWORLD THEME PARK TOMORROW HAS BEEN CANCELLED. QUEENSLAND POLICE SAID THEY NEEDED MORE TIME TO COMPLETE THE INVESTIGATION INTO THE DEATHS OF FOUR PEOPLE ON A RIVER RAPIDS RIDE. IT FOLLOWS AN EMOTIONAL DAY FOR FAMILY MEMBERS, AS AUSTRALIA CORRESPONDENT RUTH WYNN WILLIAMS REPORTS. RIGHT NOW THE GATES OF AUSTRALIA'S BIGGEST FUN PARK ARE FIRMLY CLOSED, BUT WHAT WENT ON BEHIND THEM IS SHOCKING. MY SON MANAGED TO REACH HIS PARTNER OF 33 YEARS, WHO DIED IN HIS ARMS, WHILE HIS 12-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER LOOKED ON SCREAMING IN THE BACKGROUND. GILLIAN TURNER'S DAUGHTER-IN-LAW, KATE GOODCHILD, AND HER BROTHER, LUKE DORSETT, DIED WHEN THE THUNDER RIVER RAPIDS RIDE MALFUNCTIONED. I WOULD LIKE TO BELIEVE MY 12-YEAR-OLD GRANDAUGHTER WAS SAVED SO SHE COULD TELL HER LITTLE SISTER WHAT A WONDERFUL MUM KATE WAS. NZER CINDY LOW WAS ALSO KILLED, AS WELL AS LUKE DORSETT'S PARTNER, ROOZI ARAGHI. HE'S A... HE'S... WAS A GREAT HUMAN BEING. THE MOST EGALITARIAN PERSON I'VE PROBABLY EVER EVER KNOWN IN MY LIFE. THREE DAYS AFTER THE FATAL ACCIDENT, THE 'FAMILY FRIENDLY' FUN PARK REMAINS A BIG AND COMPLICATED CRIME SCENE. POLICE, THE CORONER AND WORKPLACE HEALTH AND SAFETY ARE ALL PROMISING VIGOROUS INVESTIGATIONS. BUT THERE ARE MOUNTING ALLEGATIONS ABOUT LAPSES IN PARK SAFETY AND 'ARDENT LEISURE', THE COMPANY THAT OWNS 34-YEAR-OLD DREAMWORLD, IS IN DAMAGE CONTROL. IF I CAN'T HELP THEM PERSONALLY, WE WILL MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE EVERYTHING IN PLACE TO ASSIST THEM THROUGH THIS TRAGEDY. BUT AT THE PARK, LOYAL DREAMWORLD MEMBERS TOLD 1 NEWS THIS VISIT WILL BE THEIR LAST. IT'S A BIT TOO SOON AFTER THERE HAVE BEEN DEATHS HERE. I DON'T THINK MANY PEOPLE ARE GONNA WANT TO COME HERE THAT SOON. AS BIG QUESTIONS ARE ASKED ABOUT THE FUTURE OF THE ICONIC PARK. WELLINGTON RUGBY PLAYER LOSI FILIPO'S DISCHARGE WITHOUT CONVICTION ON ASSAULT CHARGES HAS BEEN OVERTURNED. THE NOW 18-YEAR-OLD WILL BE GIVEN A CHANCE TO RETRACT HIS EARLY GUILTY PLEA AT A HEARING NEXT WEEK. THE HIGH COURT HAS ALLOWED AN APPEAL BY POLICE AND SET ASIDE THE SENTENCE FOR ASSAULTING FOUR PEOPLE, INCLUDING TWO WOMEN, LAST OCTOBER. JUSTICE DAVID COLLINS DETERMINED THE SENTENCING JUDGE 'UNDERSTATED THE SERIOUSNESS OF FILIPO'S CONDUCT' AND THE CONSEQUENCES FOR THE VICTIMS. POLICE HAVE DEFENDED USING A FAKE CHECKPOINT TO GET THE DETAILS OF PEOPLE ATTENDING A MEETING OF PRO-EUTHANASIA GROUP EXIT INTERNATIONAL. THEY SAY THE OPERATION, DUBBED DIRTY TACTICS BY SOME, WAS PART OF A CORONIAL INVESTIGATION INTO A DEATH INVOLVING A CLASS-C DRUG. THIS DEATH OCCURRED IN JUNE 2016, AND AT THE TIME THERE WAS NO INFORMATION THAT THE DEATH WAS SUSPICIOUS. I'D ALSO LIKE TO ADD THAT THE DECEASED WAS NOT A PERSON SUFFERING FROM A TERMINAL ILLNESS. EXIT INTERNATIONAL IS SEEKING LEGAL ADVICE, AND THE INDEPENDENT POLICE CONDUCT AUTHORITY IS INVESTIGATING. CHANGES TO GUIDELINES FOR P OR METH DECONTAMINATION MEAN AN EXTRA 50 STATE HOUSES WILL BE AVAILABLE TO NEW FAMILIES WITHIN WEEKS. THE HOMES HAD BEEN AWAITING DECONTAMINATION, BUT NO LONGER NEED IT UNDER NEW HEALTH MINISTRY RECOMMENDATIONS. WILL HINE EXPLAINS. THE METH DECONTAMINATION INDUSTRY HAS BOOMED IN RECENT YEARS, BUT SOME OF THE HOUSES WOULDN'T HAVE NEEDED CLEANING ACCORDING TO NEW GUIDELINES RELEASED BY THE MINISTRY OF HEALTH. THEY BETTER REFLECT THE ACTUAL RISKS THAT MIGHT EXIST IN PLACES WHERE METHAMPHETAMINE HAS BEEN SMOKED OR MANUFACTURED. TESTS ARE ALWAYS DONE BY ANALYSING A SMALL SQUARE SURFACE. A CLEAN-UP WAS USUALLY TRIGGERED WITH A READING OF 0.5 MICROGRAMS OF P. THE NEW GUIDELINE ALLOWS FOR THREE TIMES THAT LEVEL - 1.5 MICROGRAMS ` IN HOUSES WITH CARPETS THAT COULD SOAK UP TOXIC CHEMICALS, AND FOUR TIMES THAT AMOUNT IN HOUSES WHERE THERE ARE NO CARPETS. THE CHANGES GET THE TICK FROM THIS TOXICOLOGIST, WHO'S PREVIOUSLY RAISED CONCERNS ABOUT THE THRESHOLDS. THEY ARE A LOT LOWER STILL THAN THE LOWEST POINT WE WOULD EXPECT TO SEE A MEASURABLE EFFECT ON A PERSON. AND THAT'S APPROPRIATE FOR ANY GUIDELINE. THE MORE STRINGENT OLD STANDARD STILL APPLIES WHERE P'S BEEN MANUFACTURED, NOT SMOKED. OUR BIGGEST LANDLORD IS WELCOMING THE HIGHER LIMITS. IN FACT, WHAT WE'VE DONE IMMEDIATELY ON UNDERSTANDING WHAT THOSE CHANGES WERE IS TO IDENTIFY 50 HOUSES THAT WE CAN BRING BACK IN VERY VERY QUICKLY. THOSE HOUSES, SOME OF THE HUNDREDS EACH YEAR THAT WON'T BE EMPTY WHILE AWAITING POINTLESS DECONTAMINATION. THIS IS REALLY GOOD NEWS AND IT'S NOT JUST GOOD NEWS FOR HOUSING NZ; IT'S GOOD NEWS FOR ANYONE WHO'S BUYING A PROPERTY, ANYONE WHO OWNS A PROPERTY, ALL OF THOSE PRIVATE LANDLORDS OUT THERE. THERE'S GOING TO BE A FAR BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT'S SAFE. A WIN THAT SHOULD SET PEOPLE STRAIGHT ON WHETHER THEIR HOUSE NEEDS A CLEAN UP. WILL HINE, 1 NEWS. THE INQUIRY INTO THE HAVELOCK NORTH GASTRO OUTBREAK HAD ITS FIRST HEARING TODAY, BUT IT WON'T LOOK INTO CRIMINAL LIABILITY. THE OUTBREAK SAW 5000 PEOPLE FALL ILL FROM DRINKING CONTAMINATED WATER IN AUGUST. THE INQUIRY WILL LOOK AT HOW THE WATER BECAME CONTAMINATED, THE RESPONSE FROM BOTH LOCAL AND CENTRAL GOVERNMENT AND HOW TO STOP IT HAPPENING AGAIN. WE'RE GOING TO GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS. IT MUST NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN, AND THERE WILL BE LEARNINGS, I EXPECT, FOR NZ IN HOW WE MANAGE DRINKING WATER STANDARDS. RESULTS OF AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE THREE BORES THAT SUPPLY WATER TO THE TOWN ARE DUE BACK IN TIME FOR THE NEXT PUBLIC HEARINGS. NZ'S TRANSPORT ACCIDENT COMMISSION HAS ADDED THREE NEW AREAS OF CONCERN TO ITS WATCH LIST. THE POPULAR ROBINSON HELICOPTER'S NEW ON THAT LIST. IT'S BEEN INVESTIGATED FOR ACCIDENTS THAT'VE CLAIMED THE LIVES OF 18 PEOPLE SINCE 1996. ALSO NEW ` SAFETY ISSUES AT RAILWAY LEVEL CROSSINGS. WORRIES THAT SYSTEMS DESIGNED TO REDUCE RISKS TO PEDESTRIANS AND MOTORISTS AREN'T KEEPING PACE WITH CHANGE. AND RECREATIONAL BOAT USERS ARE A MAJOR CONCERN. THE COMMISSION SAYS KIWIS SHOULD HAVE TO DEMONSTRATE THEY UNDERSTAND AND PRACTISE SAFE BEHAVIOUR BEFORE BEING ALLOWED TO SKIPPER A BOAT. WE'LL HAVE MORE ON BOATING OVER THE WEEKEND. A NEW MOBILE HEALTH CLINIC WILL BE ON THE ROAD SHORTLY, TARGETING FAMILIES DOING IT TOUGH IN WEST AUCKLAND. IT'LL CALL ON EARLY CHILDHOOD CENTRES, SCHOOLS AND PUBLIC PLACES TO DO HEARING AND GENERAL HEALTH CHECKS. NAOMI TAN TOOK A LOOK. LOVELY. OK, THAT'S EXCELLENT. ETUA RAKI (11) IS LUCKY THAT HE CAN HEAR THROUGH BOTH EARS. FOR THREE YEARS, ETUA HAD A SMALL PIECE OF LEGO AND TOY BATTERY STUCK IN HIS RIGHT EAR. JUST A LITTLE CIRCLE, OR SOMETHING. YEAH. WE'RE YOU, LIKE, SHOCKED WHEN YOU SAW IT? YEAH, I WAS. HIS MUM TANIA SAYS ETUA FAILED A HEARING TEST AT SCHOOL AND IT WASN'T UNTIL SHE TOOK HIM TO THE MOBILE HEALTH CLINIC THAT THEY FOUND WHAT WAS CAUSING THE PROBLEM. HE WOULD'VE DEFINITELY HAD PERMANENT HEARING LOSS. HE WOULD'VE DEFINITELY HAD PERMANENT HEARING LOSS. THERE COULD HAVE BEEN CHEMICAL POISONING FROM THE BATTERY. TANIA RAKI COULDN'T THANK THE CLINIC ENOUGH. I'M JUST SO HAPPY THAT THERE'S PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT CAN HELP YOU AND HELP OTHER KIDS OUT THERE. THAT ALL HAPPENED IN THE OLD MOBILE CLINIC. NOW THERE'S A NEW ONE. THE TWO EXISTING CLINICS THAT WE STILL HAVE ON THE ROAD ARE WAY PAST THEIR USE-BY DATES. THEY'RE AROUND 18 YEARS OLD AFTER A BLESSING THIS MORNING, IT'S READY TO SERVICE THE MOST VULNERABLE AREAS OF WEST AUCKLAND. A LOT OF OUR FAMILIES STRUGGLE TO GET INTO THE HOSPITAL OR GET INTO THE GP. IT TOOK 6 MONTHS FOR THE WELL FOUNDATION TO RAISE $210,000 FOR THE VEHICLE. THIS CLINIC WILL CHECK CHILDREN'S EARS. THEY'LL ALSO DO THROAT SWABS TO CHECK FOR THINGS LIKE RHEUMATIC FEVER, WHICH CAN LEAD TO SERIOUS CONDITIONS, LIKE HEART DISEASE. WAITEMATA DHB'S NOW HOPING TO REPLACE THE OTHER DATED CLINIC AND EXTEND THE SERVICE TO THE NORTH SHORE AND RODNEY. NAOMI TAN, 1 NEWS. THE PRIME MINISTER'S SON IS IN THE BAD BOOKS WITH HIS FATHER AFTER POSTING AN INAPPROPRIATE VIDEO ON SOCIAL MEDIA. ON A SNAPCHAT VIDEO, MAX KEY CAN BE HEARD YELLING AT PASSING CYCLISTS, 'REAL MEN RIDE WOMEN.' JOHN KEY SAYS HE'S SPOKEN TO MAX FROM INDIA AND SAYS IT WAS A POOR ATTEMPT AT HUMOUR. HE HAS RUNG ME TO BOTH EXPLAIN AND APOLOGISE. CLEARLY, HE DIDN'T MEAN TO MAKE THE SORT OF COMMENT THAT HE MADE IN THE WAY HE DID. BUT HE FULLY TAKES RESPONSIBILITY FOR IT. I'VE TOLD HIM IT'S NOT APPROPRIATE. THE VIDEO HAS SINCE BEEN DELETED. THE YOUNGER KEY'S COPPED FLAK PREVIOUSLY FOR HIS POSTS FLAUNTING A WEALTHY LIFESTYLE. AUCKLAND MUSEUM HAS A NEW EXHIBITION EXPLORING THE SOUNDTRACKS OF OUR LIVES. VOLUME, MAKING MUSIC IN AOTEAROA, IS A HANDS-ON, EARS-ON EXPERIENCE DELVING INTO THE PERSONAL COLLECTIONS OF SOME OF OUR BEST KNOWN ARTISTS. SO ERIN CONROY HAD SOME HELP TO CHECK IT OUT BEFORE THE DOORS OPEN TOMORROW. THE MUTTON BIRDS' 'NATURE' # THROUGH FALLING LEAVES, I PICK MY WAY SLOWLY. # HE'S ONE OF OUR MOST TALENTED MUSICIANS ` A NZ ICON. DON MCGLASHAN, HOW DOES IT FEEL? YOU'RE ABOUT TO SEE YOURSELF AS A MUSEUM PIECE. I STRUGGLED WITH IT INITIALLY, BUT I'M COMING ROUND TO IT. SHE IS A NEWCOMER TO THE INDUSTRY ` POSSUM PLOWS, SINGER IN THE BAND OPENSIDE. LOOKING BACK ON NZ HISTORY AND MUSIC ` IT'S GOING TO BE DOPE. THEY ARE THE VERY FIRST TO GET A GLIMPSE... WOW. ...AT AN EXHIBITION CALLED VOLUME ` MAKING MUSIC IN AOTEAROA. THIS IS WEIRD FOR ME, COS THIS IS LIKE I'VE DIED AND ALL MY FRIENDS HAVE DIED AND WE'RE IN HEAVEN. BUT I'VE GOT OVER IT. I'M OK NOW. IT SHOWCASES SEVEN DECADES OF OUR MUSICAL MEMORIES... WHO'S HE? ...AND ON TODAY'S SPECIAL TOUR, KNOWLEDGE IS BEING PASSED DOWN FROM ONE GENERATION TO THE NEXT. HE JUST GAVE AWAY ALL THE TONAL STUFF. WOW. WHEN DID YOUR FIRST ALBUM COME OUT? FIRST BLAM BLAM BLAM RECORD CAME OUT IN '81. BLAM BLAM BLAM'S 'THERE IS NO DEPRESSION IN NEW ZEALAND' BEING A NZ ARTIST NOW ` WHAT'S DIFFERENT? THERE'S MANY SIMILARITIES. WE DON'T MAKE ENOUGH MONEY. EVERYBODY'S OUT THERE STRUGGLING. YOU COULDN'T HAVE HAD SOMETHING LIKE THIS THEN, COS THERE WASN'T THAT SORT OF DEEP ROOTS OF HISTORY. BUT THE HISTORY IS BEING BROUGHT TO LIFE IN THIS EXHIBITION. I'M REMIXING CHE FU'S 'FADE AWAY'. A FIRST-EVER COLLECTION AND CELEBRATION OF A MUSICAL CULTURE THAT MEANS SO MUCH TO SO MANY KIWIS. THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT COME UP TO ME AFTER A GIG AND SAY, 'YOUR MUSIC CHANGED MY LIFE.' THEY REALLY CARE ABOUT IT, AND THIS IS A PLACE FOR THEM TO COME AND KIND OF HONOUR THAT. # MIRACLE SUN, SHINE ON MY SISTER. # JUST AHEAD ` HIS PLAYER CAREER IS SET TO GO STRATOSPHERIC EITHER WAY, BUT WILL THUNDER BE IN THE FORECAST OR NOT FOR STEVEN ADAMS? KIWI BASKETBALL STAR STEVEN ADAMS HAS A LOT RIDING ON HIS PERFORMANCE WITH THE OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER IN THE COMING SEASON. HE COMES OFF CONTRACT WHEN IT'S OVER, AND COULD BE LOOKING AT A HUGE PAY RISE. JOHN MCKENZIE CHECKED THE THUNDER'S OPENING GAME AGAINST LAST SEASON'S WORST TEAM, PHILADELPHIA. IF THERE WAS ONE AREA STEVEN ADAMS NEEDED ANY SORT OF IMPROVEMENT, IT HAD TO BE HIS OFFENCE. WESTBROOK TO ADAMS. SURE, HE'S ALWAYS HAD THE CATCH AND DUNK. TODAY, THOUGH, HE SHOWED A WHOLE NEW SET OF SKILLS. MOVES EVEN THE MOST POLISHED BIG MEN WOULD FIND DIFFICULT, HELPING ADAMS TO A 10-POINT SECOND QUARTER. ANOTHER NICE CONNECTION BETWEEN WESTBROOK AND ADAMS. IT WAS THE THUNDER'S FIRST GAME WITHOUT SUPERSTAR KEVIN DURANT, AND GROWING PAINS WERE INEVITABLE, ESPECIALLY IN THE HOSTILE ENVIRONMENT THAT IS PHILADELPHIA. THEY'RE JUST PASSIONATE FANS, MAN. THEY LOVE THEIR TEAM. ADAMS STRUGGLING AFTER HALF-TIME, HIS TEAM EVEN FALLING BEHIND AT THE THREE-QUARTER MARK. PHILADELPHIA'S OWN BIG MAN JOEL EMBIID OUTSHONE ADAMS IN HIS FIRST COMPETITIVE MATCH SINCE MARCH 2014. EMBIID FOR THREE. THE FORMER COLLEGE STAR CAUSING ADAMS A WHOLE HEAP OF HEADACHES. STEVEN ADAMS IS GOING TO NEED TO CLOSE THAT GAP. BUT WHILE ADAMS' SECOND HALF WAS QUIET, HIS PRESENCE UNDER THE HOOP HELPED DENY A SPIRITED FINISH FROM THE 76ERS, AS THE THUNDER STARTED THE SEASON WITH A 103-97 WIN. THANKFULLY WE PULLED TOGETHER AND MADE SOME GOOD PLAYS DOWN THE END, BUT IT SHOULDN'T GET TO THAT, YOU KNOW? THE THUNDER NOW HAVE JUST FIVE DAYS TO DECIDE WHETHER A PERFORMANCE LIKE THIS IS WORTH LOCKING ADAMS INTO A LONG-TERM DEAL. IF THE TWO PARTIES CAN'T AGREE ON A CONTRACT IN THAT TIME, ADAMS IS A FREE AGENT IN 2017. JOHN MCKENZIE, 1 NEWS. A NEW DEAL AT THE THUNDER WILL NOT ONLY MAKE ADAMS NZ'S MOST RECOGNISED ATHLETE IN THE US BUT OUR HIGHEST PAID ONE AS WELL. IT'S UNDERSTOOD A NEW FOUR OR FIVE YEAR CONTRACT TO KEEP HIM IN OKLAHOMA WOULD BE WORTH WELL OVER $100M. THAT WOULD TAKE HIM WELL PAST WHAT SIR RUSSELL COUTTS IS ESTIMATED TO TAKE HOME FROM ORACLE TEAM USA. ALL WHITE WINSTON REID, WHO HAD A WIN WITH WEST HAM TODAY IN THE LEAGUE CUP, COMES IN NEXT. THEN INDYCAR DRIVER SCOTT DIXON. AND LYDIA KO IS IN THE TOP FIVE FOR THE FIRST TIME. TO MIDDAY SPORT, AND THE BLACKCAPS HAVE LEVELLED AND THE BLACKCAPS HAVE LEVELLED THE FIVE-MATCH ONE DAY SERIES AGAINST INDIA AT TWO GAMES APIECE, FOLLOWING A COMMANDING 19-RUN VICTORY IN RANCHI. THE BLACK CAPS GETTING OFF TO A FLYER, SCORING 80 IN THE OPENING 10 OVERS. MARTIN GUPTILL, DESPITE BEING DROPPED ON JUST 29, THE CHIEF DESTROYER WITH 72. SHOT! OVER THE OFFSIDE, ONE BOUNCE FOR 4. 50 UP FOR MARTIN GUPTILL, OFF 56 DELIVERIES. THE MIDDLE ORDER THOUGH ONCE AGAIN OFFERING LITTLE RESISTANCE, AS NZ FINISHED ON 260/7 FROM THEIR 50 OVERS. INDIA STARTING STRONGLY IN THEIR CHASE, BEFORE A MIDDLE ORDER COLLAPSE. OH, THAT'S GOT TO BE CLOSE. CLOSE? YES! OH, BOWLED HIM! HE'S GOT THROUGH. GONE! ROLLS ON` GONE, FIRST BALL! YES, IT IS. INDIA'S TAIL EVENTUALLY DISMISSED FOR 241 TO SET UP THE SERIES DECIDER IN VISAKHAPATNAM ON SATURDAY. THE BLACKCAPS NOW IN PRIME POSITION TO RECORD THEIR FIRST EVER ONE DAY SERIES WIN IN INDIA. NOW TO TOMORROW'S WEATHER WITH MUSE. FOR WEATHER, SEE TVNZ.CO.NZ. THAT'S IT FROM US HERE ON TONIGHT. THANKS FOR STAYING UP. GOODNIGHT. CAPTIONS BY DESNEY SHAW AND TOM PEDLAR.
