Culture, Heritage Ministry remains 'absolutely committed' to Erebus Memorial

Description: "A huge concrete thing" better put at the airport is how Auckland's mayor sums up the Erebus memorial planned for a Parnell park. "Mean spirited" is how iwi Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei decribes the people stopping it going ahead. Either way, this week marks 43 years since the disaster and there's still no national memorial for the 257 people who died when an Air NZ scenic flight over Antartica slammed into Mount Erebus. PM Jacinda Arden has repeated her committed to delivering it. The Ministry of Culture and Heritage, Manatū Taonga, is leading the project at DoveMyer Robinson Park - but progress has stalled. Deputy CEO of delivery Glenis Philip-Barbara talks to Lisa Owen.
