Due to the live nature of Tonight, we apologise for the lack of captions for some items. Tonight ` it's about preventing a repeat, not pointing the finger. The commission into the deadliest collapse of the Christchurch quake begins. An allegation of rape is aimed at the Baby Blacks following their World Cup campaign in South Africa. Is it a good idea, or just a gimmick? The government's 10-point plan is slammed by the Opposition. It's been a dramatic day at the inquiry into the collapse of Christchurch's CTV building. 115 people died there, the biggest site for fatalities in the February quake. Lisa Davies is covering the hearing. Embracing at the door, families steeling themselves for a tough day ahead. This is going to be a very difficult eight weeks. They were greeted inside with sympathy. We acknowledge the presence here today of many who lost family members in this tragedy. We express our deepest sympathy. The children of St Theresa's School singing their welcome. 10 flags to represent the nationalities of those who died in the building. The commission told the collapse was immediate, almost like a controlled demolition. The effect on the CTV building was sudden and shocking. There are many contentious issues the commission must work through. Most of the eyewitnesses to the collpase have referred to the building collapsing in a matter of seconds. There are many contentious issues the commission must work through. A key focus ` the building's design. The question of whether that met the requirements of the standards is a very live issue. A 3-D model illustrated a long list of potential design issues. There's debate over who should shoulder responsiblity for that design between structural engineers Alan Reay Consultants and engineer David Harding, who was employed to do some of the work. Mr Harding had said he was inexperienced in the design of multi-storey buildings. Another focus ` the assessment of the building after the September quake. There will be evidence that the floor diaphragm in the north core may have disconnected in September. The first witness, who survived the collapse, says the building had changed dramatically. I felt really scared being in the CTV building after September 4th. I felt like the building was sick and that it wasn't safe. She was on the fifth floor when the February quake hit. It collapsed and collapsed and collapsed. Reliving the day hard for Kendall Mitchell, who was trapped with her two children. I remember feeling like I was being sucked downwards because the floor was going down fast. It's crucial testimony, hard to digest for those who lost loved ones in the collapse. There are 115 people who are not with us now. They cannot talk, but We have to do this for them. To find out once and for all why this building failed, taking so many down with it. Diving boots and a cigaratte packet found at the scene have been the focus of the trial of the man accused of murdering Feilding farmer Scott Guy. The Crown alleges that distinctive shoeprints link Ewen Macdonald to where his brother-in-law was found dead. Simon Bradwell has been at the High Court in Wellington. Ewen MacDonald's a keen deer shooter, on occasion travelling as far as Stewart Island to hunt. The Crown says when he did, he took diving boots. According to hunters, they're used for stealth. They're a quiet boot to hunt in in bush conditions so that it's easier to sneak up on animals. The Crown says whoever killed Scott Guy in July 2010 was wearing diving boots with a distinctive wavey-pattern sole. And police say after examining more than 30,000 pairs of footwear, the pattern matches a pair of size 9 diving boots owned by Ewen MacDonald. The main importer of the boots recalled some were supplied to the hunting shop belonging to the accused's father seven years before the killing. < There were five size 9 dive boots sold and supplied < to Hunting & Fishing Manawatu? Yes. But in cross-examination, the importer admitted other pairs could have been bought over the internet or parallel imported and more than two dozen pairs were unaccounted for. In a segue, those familiar with the boots agreed they could have an underworld use. < Although I'm sure you don't sell them for this purpose, < but they'd be pretty good footwear for a burglar, wouldn't they? I would imagine so. The defence asking that question to tie the boots to another piece of evidence found at the crime scene ` this cigarette packet, one of a small run produced with a distinctive red label. In a burglary only two days before the murder, packets like that were stolen from a nearby address. Police asked if the packet found near Scott Guy's body came from that burglary. < In your knowledge, are you able to exclude that from what you know? I couldn't. The defence suggests that perhaps a burglar, not Ewen MacDonald, could have shot Scott Guy at the gates of his property. The Junior All Blacks who arrived back from South Africa yesterday have been embroiled in a rape allegation this evening involving a local woman in Cape Town. The incident is alleged to have happened in a hotel where the team was staying early Saturday morning. Helen Castles has been following the story. South African news media broke the story today. The newspaper New Age reported that four members of our under-20 rugby team, the Baby Blacks, were linked to the rape of a Cape Town woman hours after they lost their IRB world title to the Baby Boks on Friday night. According to reports, forensic experts spent some time at the Southern Sun Hotel in Newlands taking samples and following other leads in a low-profile investigation. After she claimed she was raped, she phoned her parents, and her parents rocked up to the hotel and they insisted on laying charges of rape. But, I mean, according to the police she's not clear` she can't really remember what happened. Tonight, the NZ Rugby Union sent us this statement, in it confirming 'an issue' was raised by South African police before the team left the country, and the NZRFU understands the inquiry was focussed on just one player. It says, 'The team complied with local police requirements 'and assisted them with their inquiries, 'after which police advised they were happy for all team members to travel home.' Neither the team or team management has been contacted since. Farmers have voted in favour of a controversial proposal to allow outsiders to invest in dairy giant Fonterra. Two-thirds voted for the plan, but a second resolution didn't get the support it needed. Business reporter Nadine Chalmers-Ross reports. Casting their votes for a second time, Fonterra's plan to allow outsiders to invest in their co-op proved divisive. I dont think we need it. I just think it just takes us too far away from tried and proven co-operative principles. There's a lot of checks and balances so it can't be hijacked by unit investors. I'm definitely no, because I don't think it's been well enough tested. I just see it as a huge benefit for Fonterra. Here's what the plan involves. The scheme will allow farmers to trade shares with one another or sell shares to a fund, which then sells units worth no more than 20% of Fonterra's total shares to outside investors. Such is the level of feeling about this plan that Fonterra wouldn't let us film today's meetings, but I can tell you farmers continue to worry that letting outsiders invest in their co-op will ultimately lead to a loss of control. But they also say that 50% is not enough and that 75% shareholder support should be required to see it pass. Anything less than that will actually create a rift within the shareholder base. But less is what they got ` just under 67% in favour. Two out of every three votes are supportive of TAF, which we think is a mandate for us to proceed. Despite that, concerns remain. Once they've made that economic decision to sell down in their shareholding, often farmers find it very very difficult to buy back into their co-operative again. A second resolution designed to further protect farmers failed. But the scheme will go ahead, and Fonterra will put those measures back to a vote at their AGM in November. The Opposition's accused the government of a public relations gimmick in coming out with a 10-point plan. It's announced its goals for the public sector for the next five years, which include reducing the number of people getting a benefit for more than a year by a third. The Prime Minister's talking tough, ordering the public sector to drop the dole queue by almost one third. We have set five-year targets to reduce the number of people on working-age benefit for more than 12 months, by 30%, or more than 20,000 people. That's one of 10 targets the Government's set. The public service must also push to make 70% of government services online, and increase the number of 18-year-olds achieving NCEA Level Two to 85%. The Government says it's creating a public sector that's more driven and focused, and public-sector bosses may get pay cuts or pay bonuses according to their department's performance against the targets. We'll also be making public-sector chief executives accountable. The Salvation Army says the goal to reduce welfare dependency is good, but only if there's better job or training alternatives for beneficiaries. We've gotta make sure the jobs are quality jobs, the jobs are real jobs, The targets have been announced in the same week the Government's controversial asset sales bill is expected to pass into law here in Parliament. The Opposition says it's all a publicity stunt. This list's come out because the Government's reeling from criticism about asset sales and about larger class sizes. Some of these targets are very aspirational. In fact, some of them will be extremely difficult and demanding to achieve. Difficult and demanding, but also a divisive goal for the public sector to meet. Just ahead ` could a funding cut at the Censor's office mean a limited choice at the DVD store? And a first-hand view of police in action ` Australia considers using new technology in the front line. 1 The range of films and TV programmes on offer down at the DVD store could become more limited for Kiwi viewers. A funding squeeze at the censors' office means it's struggling to balance its books, with more film distributors choosing not to put their films up for classifcation. A fee of around $1100 to get one movie or DVD a censor's classification is peanuts when it comes to hits like The Avengers. But for distributors of smaller films and TV shows, it can be a big barrier. To have to consider that you're gonna recoup that from your sales, it often doesn't happen. So we often find that TV series, in particular, don't get released in NZ. The Office of Film and Literature Classification gets around a third of its $3m annual budget from private distributors like Vendetta Films. The rest comes from taxpayers. Chief censor Andrew Jack says that funding structure is not working properly, and it's vital they find out why. Otherwise... NZers might, in the future, see a narrower range of products available for them to watch. Independent Wellington DVD store Aro Video says it's already aware of hundreds of films that are not publicly released in NZ because of high censorship costs. We would go further and say that we need a-a national review of the classification system. We think that taxpayers' money is better spent on actually looking at what the problems are. But Dr Jack says one solution is to see if taxpayers might consider bearing more of the cost of classifying a film. I think it's really good thing for people to actually have some discussion about what is, um, the public value in a classification system as opposed to the private good. But the Government is ruling out more direct financial help. Dr Jack's got to work within the levers he can pull, within his business model now going forward and make the organisation more sustainable. However, Chris Tremain says censorship remains important, and the Government will continue to work with the chief censor to ensure his office has a sustainable future. Egypt's newly elected president Mohammed Morsi has told an Iranian news agency he wants his country to expand ties with Tehran to create what he describes as a 'strategic balance' in the region. Mohammed Morsi won the Egyptian presidency with just under 52% of the vote, defeating former Prime Minister Ahmed Shafik. Meanwhile, in the US the White House says the Egyptian government must continue to fulfil its role as a pillar of regional peace, security and stability. And Israel says it respects the democratic process in Egypt and expects continued cooperation with its neighbour on the basis of a bilateral peace accord. In the last couple of hours, it's been reported by Turkish media that several high-ranking Syrian military figures have defected to Turkey. It's reported that a general, two colonels, two majors, and around 30 soldiers have crossed into Hatay province. This comes as Turkey requests an emergency NATO meeting over the shooting-down of one of its jets by Syria at the weekend. Syria says its forces only realised it was a Turkish jet after firing on it. The bus slid into a ravine in wet conditions in the state of Guerrero. It's being reported that many children were involved in the crash. Most of those who died were on their way to a political rally. High-tech cameras could soon be attached to Australian police officers, providing a first-hand view of their work in action. The technology is already in use in the United States. Channel 9's Simon Bouda has the story. It's technology that will give police the edge. Police cam ` a miniature camera worn by officers to record just about every move they make. Police cam ` a miniature camera worn by officers to record just about every move they make. Hello? Watch what happens as this US policeman deals with a siege. It's a tense standoff. Eventually, the officer opens fire. GUNSHOTS The gunman was killed. This is coming. Yeah, we have in-car video. We have Taser-cam. They've already produced great results for the police. The high-tech equipment can be attached to vests, sunglasses or helmets, and can be switched on and off by the wearer. I think it's the next step in technology for police officers. In a major incident, the on-officer camera would enable police to stream video live to an operations centre, such as this, so commanders can properly deploy their resources. The cameras would also provide evidence that could protect officers, such as the highway patrolman who was accused of racism by a Muslim woman. They could have ruined his career. Last month, this clash between a fan and a police officer at the SCG, ended up being caught. Mobile phone footage looked bad, but CCTV cleared the senior constable of any wrongdoing. Otherwise that police officer may be facing disciplinary action all on the say-so of one iPhone video. Police here have trialled the technology. This is something we're particularly interested in. He was the last of his kind, and now he's gone. Lonesome George, a giant tortoise believed to be the last of his Pinta Island subspecies, has died. Scientists estimate he was around 100 years old. George's kin were hunted to the point of extinction in the 19th century, and although some other subspecies are still alive on other Galapagos islands, with George's death, his type are now extinct. Just ahead ` a new world record in athletics. And, the one you've been waiting for ` Billboard magazine's top 50 sexiest songs. Staying with athletics ` there's been a new world record achieved in the decathlon. American Ashton Eaton smashed the 11-year-old record by 13 points at the Olympic track and field trials in Oregon with a personal best on the last event, the 1500m. One of British sport's biggest obsessions is about to begin in a couple of hours. Can one of their own finally win the men's or women's singles title at Wimbledon? Perennial hope again is for Scot Andy Murray, and it appears he's even got the world number one on his side I think he's been on several occasions here, and semifinals, and he deserves to win it. I don't know if it's going to be this year, but he's one of the favourites for sure. Kiwi number one Marina Erakovic is on court tomorrow, up against Poland's Urszula Radwanska, younger sister of number three seed Agnieska. Weather time now with Renee. Thanks, Greg. Hi, everyone. Let's start with the severe weather warning. Overnight, a low is expected to pass from the Sout Tasman Sea to the south of the South Island, bringing damaging winds to the island. Its associated cold front moves across the South Island overnight and then over the North Island during the morning, with gales ahead of and behind the front. For weather, see onenews.co.NZ That's your weather. Enjoy the rest of your evening. It's been called the vertical soundtrack to horizontal desire ` pop music in all its guises has long been linked to sex, and in honour of that Billboard magazine has released a Top 50 list of the all-time sexiest songs. Here's a taste of the top 10. # If ya want my body, and you think I'm sexy, come on baby... # It was a question which millions answered 'yes' by buying the record, but the outfit meant the tasteful gave it a resounding, 'No, thanks, you old tartan perv.' # If you want my body, and you think I'm sexy, come on baby... # Backcombed and tight-panted to within an inch of his life, Rod Stewart is number ten. The queen of all things pop made a statement on many levels with her second biggest hit, which is number eight. # Like a virgin, hey... # One glance at her writhing on a gondola, though, showed she was anything but virginal. The recently deceased Donna Summer's disco floor-filler 'Hot Stuff' is number six # Gotta have hot stuff. # You can almost see the white high heels, smell the hairspray, and wince at the pelvic thrusts. Marvin Gaye's 'Let's Get It On' is arguably one of the more timeless in the top 10. It's at five. # Let's get it on. # Although the late troubled lover-man leaves no doubt what the 'it' is and he's more about 'in' than 'on'. # I'll make love to you. # Boyz To Men 'I'll Make Love To You' is number three. # I'm gonna take my clothes off too. # Then, like a dose of tartan tinea, Rod is back for number two. 'Tonight's The Night' he promises his virgin child. # Tonight's the night. # And tomorrow will no doubt be the day for shamefaced regret for the young lovely. # Let's get physical, physical. # Number one, though, is from left field and across the ditch. Previously, Olivia Newton-John's only foray into sexy had been as Sandy in Grease. In this testament to mousse and Lycra, the grease was all over the blokes in the gym. And when Liv sang... # There's nothing left to talk about unless it's horizontally... # ...it had nothing to do with sit-ups. # Physical, physical. I wanna get physical, physical. Let's get into physical. # # Let me hear your body talk, body talk. # That's it from us here on Tonight. You can stay up to date by logging on to our website at onenews.co.nz Thanks for watching.
