So your disagreeing with the Royal Commission

Problem with you, Fish is that you do not bother to read before you write. That's why you were caught either lying or were lied to by NZOG.
NZOG is an embedded and the principal shareholder in Pike.
NZOG kept underwriting and sponsoring capital raising to cover the mishaps, delays, cost over-runs and gross mismanagement of Pike - to 'protect' its investment.
After the explosion, NZOG put in more money 'in the best interests of the shareholders of NZOG.' Andrew Knight tried to argue NZOG acted for Pike and when challenged by John campbell on TV3, backed down as he knew the truth. NZOG was 'protecting' its investment in Pike - it had to keep the mine going as much as possible as it considers its options. NZOG decided to put Pike into receivership.
As for NZOG shareholders not feeling responsible and have voted not to pay anymore, 2 corrections :
1. There is not 'anymore' because NZOG has paid bugger all - $500,000 donation after taking over $40m from PIke's insurance payout.
2. Of course NZOG shareholders do not feel responsible - ACC and others were but bystander shareholders. It was up to the directors of NZOG to recommend and take the moral imperative of doing the right thing.
I sense you still have the NZOG fish hook, line and sinker inside you.
Maybe, it's time to seek help?

Spirit - this is a 'slag NZO and anyone who supports it' thread. You appear to be confusing it with oil exploration ;)
