Hon CHRIS HIPKINS (Minister for COVID-19 Response): Continual review and improvement has been an integral part of our COVID-19 response. Yesterday, I announced the establishment of permanent advisory group, led by Sir Brian Roche, to formalise this commitment as part of our ongoing commitment to improvement. The Government's chosen an aggressive elimination strategy in our COVID-19 response, where containment and closure of any active cases in the community remains the key priority. It allows New Zealand to continue to enjoy freedoms that elsewhere in the world don't exist, while we roll out the largest vaccination campaign in our history.
