From Lately, 10:20 pm on 19 November 2020

Today marked ten years since the Pike River mine on the West Coast exploded, killing 29 men who were working underground.  There was a service at Parliament this afternoon, where the last communication to come out of the mine was played. Sonya Rockhouse tells Karyn Hay how she felt about the Prime Minister's address today and what progress has been made at Pike River Mine.
