Kathryn is joined for analysis by David Soucie, who has thirty years of experience working with the Federal Aviation Administration as an aviation safety inspector and accident investigator.

Marty Duda's artist of the week: The Pop Group
BODY:
One of the first and most influential post-punk bands, The Pop Group came from Bristol mixing elements of reggae, dub, Krautrock, punk, funk and whatever else the four band members were listening to at the time. Their original run was short and abrasive releasing two albums and a handful of singles in 1979 and 1980. By 1981 they had disbanded, but not before leaving an indelible impression that lasts to this day. Nick Cave was just one of The Pop Group's biggest fans and chances are other post-punk bands such as Gang Of Four, Wire and The Slits owe a huge debt as well. The band has recently reunited, completely intact and have just released a new album, 'Citizen Zombie'. It sounds as fresh, aggressive and dangerous as their records from 35 years ago. They play their first and only NZ concert Wednesday night at The Kings Arms.

Monte Cecilia Housing Trust - David Steemson
BODY:
One of Auckland's biggest emergency housing suppliers is facing challenges to its own future. The Monte Cecilia Housing Trust says it depends on outside help for much of its income. But costs are outstripping the funding.
EXTENDED BODY:
Monte Cecilia resident Ali with her son Suega and daughter Makasini. The other three children are at school and her husband is at work.
“We must remain focussed on getting families out of really terrible living situations.”
– David Zussman Executive, Monte Cecilia Housing Trust
One of Auckland’s biggest emergency housing suppliers is facing challenges to its own future. The Monte Cecilia Housing Trust says it depends on outside help for much of its income. But costs are outstripping funding. Each year Monte Cecilia helps about seven hundred desperate families, and provides short-term shelter to only about twelve of them at one time.
The day I visit, one family had shifted out after living there since last September, but Monte Cecilia Social Worker Maxine Pairama says many families move on to Housing New Zealand places within a few days.
Thirty-year-old Ali and her family have lived at Monte Cecilia for five weeks. She’s hoping to get a four-bedroom Housing New Zealand home very soon, somewhere near her husband’s scaffolding job.
Ali has five children and another one on the way. She says private landlords won’t take on such a large family. The couple and their kids had to live in one bedroom at a relative’s house which was stressful.
There are twelve little flats at Monte Cecilia like the one Ali and her family now have – each divided into three compartments. Shared toilets and showers are down the hall, there’s a big communal kitchen and dining room furnished with twelve tables, and twelve numbered and padlocked fridges.
Maxine Pairama and David Zussman and refrigerators
Monte Cecilia Trust Executive, David Zussman says the emergency care facility is expensive to run, but he wants to upgrade it to make each flat self-contained. That’ll reduce the need for 24-hour staffing.
The trust also has 26-houses sited away from its Mangere campus for longer term accommodation, with more to be built. But all this means more money. Monte Cecilia gets financial help from Lotteries, the Ministry of Social Development and the ASB Community Trust. But David Zussman’s life is a constant application process for more funds. He says they’re just not keeping pace with costs. He thinks Monte Cecilia needs to be self-sustaining.
