That said, some aspects of the Health Act do need to be modernised and adapted, and this is particularly true for the detailed level 2 measures, which are not well suited to the existing Health Act and Civil Defence Emergency Management regime. This bill provides new enforceable measures that don't depend on a state of emergency being in force. The bill allows the Minister of Health to issue orders to give effect to these measures, either for all of New Zealand, at a regional level, or for a particular class of people, businesses, or other activities. For example, it includes powers to require people to maintain social distancing measures, to require people to refrain from travel to or from any area, to require people to be isolated or quarantined, to prohibit gatherings of any specified kind, to report for testing, and requiring premises to be closed or allowed to open only if specific measures are complied with.
