Time unknown
I am sorry to interrupt question time. Mr Dunne raised previously with me an issue about whether there was an evacuation due at Kaiapoi. The best update I have is that the answer is no, but an evacuation has just begun at Amberley Beach, and two emergency centres have been established for roughly 160 residents, if they require them. I will bring further information, if there is anything further, before 6 o’clock.
Question time resumed.
