Whakaari/White Island volcano owners, the Buttle brothers, wish to grant GNS access for monitoring, as per their lawyer James Cairney. The brothers are shareholders in Whakaari Management, which is appealing a guilty verdict on health and safety offences for allowing access to the island following the 2019 eruption.
