New Zealand's civil defense minister John Carter expressed a diminishing sense of hope on Friday of finding survivors among the rubble, stating, "We're still hopeful, but it's getting less and less likely."

Police commander Dave Lawry expressed little hope. "The situation is that we don't believe this site is now survivable," he was stated as saying.
