Welcome back. And 5 welcome to the array of witnesses on my right. All the witnesses relating to the topic on cricket. Thank you all for coming today. I know it’s not easy to get everyone together at the same time, but I do appreciate it. 10 What we’re doing this morning is we’re going to have what we call a contemporaneous witnessing or as they call it in Australia “hot tubbing”. Whereby we have all of the witnesses on a particular expert topic together at the same time and we have a set of topics that we’re going to go through where counsel have sorted out a batting order for 15 the questions that will be asked on that topic. [9.40 am] We will come to a topic; say the first topic, which is “Council, the 20 Trust and the Relationship with the Applicant”. The first person who is going to head off on that one is Mr Jones; he will get up and ask questions first. He will identify a witness that he is going to ask the question to and then he will ask that question to that particular witness. 25 When that witness is finished answering the question if any other of you wish to add something if you just simply move on and perhaps if you just sort of follow. If you wish to contradict anything then also you are entitled to do that at the same time. 30 It means that we have an interaction between the expert witnesses and it saves a lot of time because it means that you don’t have to have one witness with a whole lot of questions and then another witness, and then another witness, and each topic being gone over and over again. 35 Anyway, we will just take it quietly, we’ll be relaxed about it and we take it step by step. Now, also a number of you have prepared what we call opening statements. They all arrived on our desk this morning and we haven’t 40 had an opportunity of reading them all so I’m going to get each one of you who has made an opening statement to read it out. So the first thing we’ll have to do is to have each of the gentlemen sworn in, so Madam Registrar, if you could swear them in? 45 Basin Reserve, Wellington 05.05.14 Page 5988 <GORDON FRANK SANDERSON, affirmed [9.42 am] <HARRY RICKETTS, affirmed [9.42 am] 5 <DONALD NEELY, affirmed [9.42 am] <DAVID COLLINS, sworn [9.43 am] <MARTIN COLIN SNEDDEN, sworn [9.43 am] 10 <PETER CLINTON, affirmed [9.43 am] CHAIRPERSON: Yes, thank you. Now, those of you who have given opening statements if you could simply – and we’ll start perhaps with 15 Dr Sanderson this end and then we can just do it one after the other as we go down the table. If you’ve got an opening statement if you could just, for the purposes of the record, say what your full name is and what your area of expertise is and then read your opening statement. 20 MR ……….: I don’t have an opening statement to be honest. CHAIRPERSON: Yes, well if you don’t have – that’s fine. If you don’t have an opening statement if you could for the record again, just state your name and just say that you haven’t got an opening statement. That’s 25 fine. MS WEDDE: Excuse me, sir. Just to clarify, Professor Sanderson does have one short supplementary statement that he may like to read on Friday. 30 [9.45 am] CHAIRPERSON: Oh, I see, well then that can be read as well at the same time. So that will save counsel having to introduce each of you, and you introduce yourselves and then I’ll ask Mr Jones to – I’ll identify 35 the topic that he’s going to start cross-examining on. At the end of each question I will indicate if anyone else wishes to add or say anything relating to the answer given by the other and then we will go through any other parties or their counsel who wish to ask questions on that same topic when Mr Jones is finished. So it is all pretty relatively 40 straightforward. So Professor Sanderson if you could start the ball rolling. DR SANDERSON: My full name is Gordon Frank Sanderson. I have a 45 supplementary statement which pertains to a fairly small aspect of my original evidence-in-chief. This supplementary evidence provides Basin Reserve, Wellington 05.05.14 Page 5989 further information regarding the potential for light to reflect off cars travelling on the proposed Basin Bridge and cause visual distraction to cricket players within the Basin Reserve. 5 As mentioned in my evidence-in-chief in paragraph 3.6 I consider that this may cause a transient visual distraction. However, I elaborate further as follows: (a) While a car windscreen or side window is made of glass it is not a 10 mirror and only a very small percentage, approximately 10 percent, of the light which strikes its surface is reflected. Any reflection will be further attenuated by the condition of the surface, a cleaner surface providing the greater reflection. 15 (b) Further, the surface of the side window or windscreen in a car or similar vehicle is generally curved. This has the effect of making it behave as a “convex mirror”. Light rays from the sun or any other light source will diverge when they strike the window and disperse in proportion to the distance of the observer from the window. 20 (c) I observe that a batsman at the southern end of the pitch will be at least 100 metres from the side window or windscreen. At this distance the dispersion effect will be considerable. Fielders who face the Bridge will generally be at a further distance where the dispersion effect would 25 be even greater. It is therefore my opinion that any reflection from cars on the Basin Bridge will be transient and highly attenuated. I conclude that the risk of visual distraction from this source is negligible. CHAIRPERSON: Yes, thank you, and if you could read your summary of 30 evidence or opening statement. DR SANDERSON: Certainly. MS WEDDE: Sorry, just to ensure we are not at cross purposes, 35 Professor Sanderson did not prepare a summary of evidence and his original evidence was already quite concise. CHAIRPERSON: Oh, so this is just his original evidence? 40 MS WEDDE: So what he has just read is his supplementary statement which was filed on Friday and in addition to that he has filed his evidence-in- chief and rebuttal evidence but he didn’t file a separate summary of evidence. 45 CHAIRPERSON: Yes, fine, thank you. Yes, very well, so we will move on to the next person. Basin Reserve, Wellington 05.05.14 Page 5990 DR RICKETTS: Hello, I am Professor Harry Ricketts from the English programme at Victoria University and I am a cricket enthusiast and a write and I am going to read you an eight line poem as my brief about 5 the Basin. CHAIRPERSON: Well, I can tell you, Professor, that will be a delight after listening to transport evidence for some weeks. 10 DR RICKETTS: So it is called - - - CHAIRPERSON: It is a lot better than looking at intersection capacities and volumes. 15 DR RICKETTS: Thank you. So it is “Wellington Basin Reserve, late summer 2014”. On the bank at the Basin the crowd applauds; cicadas click-click their castanets, 20 Listen to the money’s slow, withdrawing roar. On the bank at the Basin the crowd applauds. ‘ “Wellington is a city that’s dying”, says the man with cold snapper eyes. On the bank of the Basin the crowd applauds; 25 cicadas click-click their castanets. Thank you. CHAIRPERSON: Thank you, professor. Mr Neely. 30 MR NEELY: My name is Donald Owen Neely and I am providing evidence on behalf of the Basin Reserve Trust. MS JONES: Mr Neely had a couple of questions to his evidence-in-chief.

  • Cricket Memorabilia Society Postal Auction Closing at Noon 10
    CRICKET MEMORABILIA SOCIETY POSTAL AUCTION CLOSING AT NOON 10th JULY 2020 Conditions of Postal Sale The CMS reserves the right to refuse items which are damaged or unsuitable, or we have doubts about authenticity. Reserves can be placed on lots but must be agreed with the CMS. They should reflect realistic values/expectations and not be the “highest price” expected. The CMS will take 7% of the price realised, the vendor 93% which will normally be paid no later than 6 weeks after the auction. The CMS will undertake to advertise the memorabilia for auction on its website no later than 3 weeks prior to the closing date of the auction. Bids will only be accepted from CMS members. Postal bids must be in writing or e-mail by the closing date and time shown above. Generally, no item will be sold below 10% of the lower estimate without reference to the vendor.. Thus, an item with a £10-15 estimate can be sold for £9, but not £8, without approval. The incremental scale for the acceptance of bids is as follows: £2 increments up to £20, then £20/22/25/28/30 up to £50, then £5 increments to £100 and £10 increments above that. So, if there are two postal bids at £25 and £30, the item will go to the higher bidder at £28. Should there be two identical bids, the first received will win. Bids submitted between increments will be accepted, thus a £52 bid will not be rounded either up or down. Items will be sent to successful postal bidders the week after the auction and will be sent by the cheapest rate commensurate with the value and size of the item.

  • Testing Circumstances
    Testing Circumstances “By this time New Zealand were almost certain of victory, Hastings and Yuile having taken their side from a precarious 39 for 3 to 113”: Jamaica Daily Gleaner Brian Yuile, New Zealand v West Indies, Second Test, Wellington, March 1969 The West Indies’ Antipodean tour of 1968-69 began in December with a victory in the First Test at Brisbane. Two months later the tourists left Australia in shock having been beaten three Tests to one. Unused to setbacks, the press unleashed much criticism against the captain, Garry Sobers. Clive Lloyd thought Sobers had spent too much time on golf courses instead of in the nets looking after his team, but also considered the manager ought to have arranged training schedules and team meetings. Charlie Griffith felt the series was lost not because the West Indies were outclassed but because they dropped vital chances1. Sobers agreed, reckoning 34 catches were spilled in the series, by the end of which he was desperately trying to hide butter-fingers in the field. Thus, the West Indies arrived in New Zealand for three Tests seeming to Tony Cozier to “have neither the heart nor the energy for the tight month-long tour.” Clive Lloyd remembered “everyone was completely fed up and just going through the motions.” They were spurred out of lethargy in the First Test by a bold declaration. On the final morning the New Zealand captain, Graham Dowling, set the West Indies 345 runs to win, giving both sides a chance of victory. Finding their enthusiasm, the West Indies raced to an exciting five-wicket victory.
