The jury is out on whether SkyCity's fire-damaged International Convention Centre will have the same roof design. "The roof design and specifications were compliant and it is absolutely appropriate to put it back there. Convention centre owner SkyCity Entertainment Group declined to answer questions about the roof design. Once it has been correctly installed, it is not particularly more of a fire hazard than most other construction materials, Tookey stressed. The roof design would change and be stringently peer-reviewed because of the fire, MacQueen expects.
