In 1964, a failed search near Tarawera for missing Hawke’s Bay hunter, Peter Neverman, was described by the Assistant Commissioner of Police as a “good job of work” done. He claimed the critics of the search were talking “unauthentic and unjustified twaddle”. The Hawkes Bay Inspector in charge of the search also joined the chorus and publicly labelled those who voiced their concerns as “armchair critics”. As is now revealed, that search was so poorly carried out that NZ Police immediately and totally upgrade their involvement in Search and Rescue. However, NZ Police never admitted to the failings that had drastically reduced the chances of locating Peter Neverman.
