"Once we have cleared that, we believe we should be able to hand over the site to the police for further investigation. Our current concern is that the site is safe as people will be moving around, and it has to be secured." Accounting for the remaining 19 individuals is ongoing, with efforts focused on information gathered from survivors and contractors. While not an exact number, this figure provides a crucial focus for the continuing search and rescue operations.
