WorkSafe says it cannot name the parties charged, because they have a right to seek name suppression at the first court appearance next month. Worksafe says it won't be releasing the investigation report, because the matter is now before the courts. RNZ News reporter, Sarah Robson, gives an update including the organisations that have come forward since WorkSafe announced the charges.
